Don't Judge Me Mama
Don't Tell Me That I've Done Wrong
It's A Hard Business
It's A Hard Business
To Make It On Your Own

Don't Judge Me Papa
If I Can't Handle The Things In My Head
'Cos It's A Hard Business
Such A Hard Business
Walking On The Edge

I've Got Nothing And No-one In My Life
So How Can I Lose Again
Got My Feet In Muddy Water
But I'm Gonna Find That Road Again

So I'll Be Taking Care Of Business
'Cos I Know What I'm Looking For
I've Been Working Every Hour God Gives To Man
But I Still See The Same Closed Door!

I've Got Nothing But Trouble In My Life
But I Feel I've Got A Lot To Give
Every Day I Try To Build A New World
But I've Had No-one To Build It With
I've Been Looking For A Woman To Share My Hopes
And I Know I Ain't A Patch On You
And I've Been Thinking That A Woman's God's Gift To Man
Are You Thinking The Same Way Too!?

So Don't Leave Me Mama
Don't Make Me Go On Alone
'Cos It's A Hard Business
Yes It's A Hard Business
Ooh

Don't Leave Me Papa
When My Belief In Myself Is Gone
'Cos It's A Hard Business
Such A Hard Business
Tell Me It's A Hard Business
Being On My Own
