It Ain't Easy Songtext
von Long John Baldry

When you wake up on the mountaintop
Look out across the sea
Know there′s another place perhaps
That a young man like me could be

Jump down from the rooftops
And you look out across the town
Know there's a lot of strange talk
Some are laid out and around

It ain′t easy, oh yeah
Easy, I cry
Easy to go ahead when you're goin' down

People, you got your problems
That ain′t a-nothin′ new
Patience and understanding
Will get you through
It'll get you through, Lord
Gonna take you to the end
It′s gonna take you up, oh Lord, yeah
And let you down again


It ain't easy, I cry
Easy, I know
Easy to go ahead when you′re goin' down

Satisfaction, satisfaction
Who is a-satisfied?
When she take it and she hold it
Deep down, deep down inside, ha!
Hold it deep inside
And she bites you with her teeth
Bite that holdin′ and the holy woman, Lord
And I've been livin' on relief

It ain′t easy, I cry
Easy, I know
Easy to go ahead when you′re goin' down
Easy, I cry
Easy, I know
Easy, oh Lord, well, oh yeah, ah ha ha

It ain′t easy to go ahead when you're goin′
Way right down to the rock bottom
Down
