I just don't like this kind of livin'   I'm tired of doin' all the givin'   I give my all and sit and yearn   And get no lovin' in return   And I just don't like this kind of livin'      Why do we stay together   We always fuss and fight   You ain't never known to be wrong   And I ain't never been right      Tell me where you think we're goin'   'Cause I ain't got no way of knowin'   When things go wrong, you go your way   You leave me here to pay and pay   And I just don't like this kind of livin'      I just don't like the things you're doin'   Your evil heart will be your ruin   When things start runnin' smooth and free   You haul right off and you pick on me   And I just don't like this way of livin'      They say the road of love is long   It's rocky and it's rough   But if this road don't start to get smooth   I've traveled it long enough      Why don't you act a little older   And get that chip off of your shoulder   I've told you once, now I'll tell you twice   You better start to treat me nice   'Cause I just don't like this way of livin'
