Maybe I’m right, or maybe I’m wrong
I got to go on anyway
I’m finding it hard to try and play the right card
And woman you’re getting in my way
Oh, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all

I’m working all night, you know I’m working all night
Trying to get something out of my head
I live for the day when everybody will say
It’s better than all of the rest
Oh, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all

Maybe I’m right, or maybe I’m wrong
I just do the best that I can
I been working all night, yeah I work through the night
Woman can’t you understand?

Oh, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all
No, you don’t think it matters at all
