Lyrics Marvin Gaye

Marvin Gaye

Good Lovin' Ain't Easy to Come By

Good loving ain't easy

Good loving ain't easy

Good loving ain't easy to come by

Oh, darling, that's the kind you offer me

It's just the love to be found

Because we're working on a building nobody can tear down

Look what we've got, ho-ho-ho-honey

Good loving ain't easy

Good loving ain't easy, darling

Good loving ain't easy to come by, oh no no

I've tried the good life and I know

It's a playground where no one cares

But at last you'll find out that don't compare

To what we've got, ho-ho-ho-honey

It takes more than just a song and dance

You've got to work and fight to give it a chance

If the rain comes down on us

And there ain't no place to run

We'll just cover ourselves with a blanket of love

And wait till the morning comes

Oh baby, let's do it today

Inflection

Give us protection

Good loving ain't easy to come by

Some think it's a plaything

You can toss away when it's old

But when love's valued in pieces

It's worth more than gold

That's what we've got

Good loving ain't easy to come by over

Oh, oh, it ain't easy
