Been in pain and I've been in shame. But ain't love a bitch. I been in fights locked away for nights. But ain't love a bitch. I been tailed impaled strung up. and nailed and left without a stitch. I been scratched 'n' taxed 'n' finally axed. But ain't love a bitch. Oh I didn't understand till I was seventeen. She took me way upstairs and she wiped me clean. Oh I didn't realize she made a first class fool out of. me. Oh Maggie if you're still out there the rest is. history. You're all alone in the freezing cold. by the underground. Your hands are numb and you're feeling dumb. cos you been let down. You thought you were rough and kinda tough. and maybe out of reach. You're acting chic playing hide 'n' seek. But ain't love a bitch. Oh I must state right here I been there before. My eyes were closed and so my friends. I still don't know the score. Oh don't underestimate the strength of it. It may be unwise to analyze even the cause of it. You're driving home late one night and on the radio. Comes an old familiar song you used to know so well. (you know a lot about that). Oh I can't comprehend this thing called love. Maybe it's a matter of fact I just can't grow up. Deep down ain't we all a little juvenile. All I really wanna know is there one sweet angel. that can make me smile. Ain't love a bitch. Torrential rains wars and hurricanes. I wouldn't budge an inch. Your rent's unpaid and your team lose again. But ain't love a bitch. You can lose your job your home and your health. But ain't love a bitch. Take it or leave it some day you'll feel it. 'cos love is the bitch. Ain't love the bitch ain't love a bitch. Ain't love a bitch ain't love a bitch. Ain't love a bitch
