[Preamble]
I got a girl who gives me hard times
If I tell you about her, you'll recognise the signs
She's the kind of girl who has beauty beyond compare
But she's got her man pulling out his hair
[Verse]
She asks me round to have a bite to eat
When I get there, she's invited the street
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
But whеn she loves me, shе loves me
[Verse]
I tell her that I'd rather be alone
She gets the car and says she'll drive me home
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
[Bridge]
Now take a night like the night we met
I was drinking in the bar, just trying to forget
When she comes up and says, you're looking blue
I said, with my problem then so would you
[Verse]
She takes me home and slips on something cool
She give me kisses where you wouldn't as a rule
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
[Bridge]
Well, need I say that I'd thought I'd struck oil
It's not every day that you meet that kind of goil
But somehow since our meeting true love ain't run so smooth
She says, you keep your hands off, what d'you think...
(She takes me home and slips on something cool)
...you trying to prove?
(She give me kisses where you wouldn't as a rule)
[Verse]
And when I think that it is over and done
She comes around and says, let's have fun
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
She give me hard times
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She give me hard times
She give me hard times
She give me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
