Lord it seems, my whole life
Ain’t been nothing but trouble
When I try to straighten things out
Hell, things double
Ever since I met you I’m doing what a man’s supposed to do
About love

A lot of folks think that love is wrong
And they don’t know what’s going on
Ever since the day they told me your name
This old heart of mine has been under lock and chain
Of love
