I AIN’T EASY 
(But I’m Working On It)


I looked at him
And he looked at me
He was looking pretty good
As far as I could see
With a dimple 
And a smile
And a twinkle in his eye
He moved on over and headed my way
And as he got closer
I could hear myself say
‘Baby, what are you doing tonight?’

He gave a grin 
As I fell to the floor
I never felt
Like this before
All wobbly
And weak-kneed 
From a single look at this man
I kind of blushed 
And felt like a twit 
A full grown woman
Acting like a kid
Honey, I just knew that had to be his plan

I said
I ain’t easy
But I’m working on it
Let me bend my morals
Just a little bit
Baby just give me a little time
My head ‘s in the way
But I haven’t given up yet
I want you here and now
Baby you can bet
Honey, I ain’t easy
But I’m working on it
 
He held out his hand
And I held tight
The two of us danced 
Long into the night
Flesh pressing flesh
I looked into his eyes
(He said)
‘Honey, where’ve you been
All of my life?’
(I said)
‘I’ve spent the last while
As someone else’s wife
But that’s all over
And I’ll be yours 
If you like
