Business

Don't judge me mama

Don't tell me that I've done wrong

It's a hard business

It's a hard business to make it on your own

Don't judge me papa

If I can't handle the things in my head

Because it's a hard business

Such a hard business walking on the edge

I got nothing and no-one in my life

So how can I lose again

Got my feet in muddy water

But I'm gonna find that road again

So I'll be taking care of business

Coz I know what I'm looking for

Oh I've been working every hour God gives to man

But I still see the same closed door

I've got nothing but trouble in my life

But I feel I've got a lot to give

Every day I try to build a new world

But I've had no-one to build it with

Oh I've been looking for a woman to share my hopes

But I know I ain't a patch on you

And I've been thinking that a woman's God's gift to man

Are you thinking the same way too

So don't leave me mama

Don't make me go on alone

Because it's a hard business

Yes it's a hard business, oooh

Don't leave me papa

When my belief in myself is gone

Because it's a hard business

Such a hard business

Tell me, it's a hard business

Being on my own
