You say you love me darlin' Please, call me on the phone sometimes You say you love me darlin' Please, call me on the phone sometimes When i hear your voice You'le know it ease my worried mind One of these days I show you how' nice a man can be One of these days I'm gonna show you just how nice a man can be I'm gonna buy you a brand new Cadillac If you only speak some good words about me Hear my phone ringin' You'le know sounds like a long distance call Hear my phone ringin' You'le know sounds like a long distance call When i picked up my receiver The party said, there's another mule kickin' in your stall

She won't drive a Cadillac unless it's new She says gold is just a place to put my jewel I work double shifts for one more pair of shoes This livin' easy's getting hard to do My daddy said never spend more than you make And that advice I've always tried to take 'Til the day you walked into the room Now livin' easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm trying Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a million in the bank but you need two Cause a man's gotta do what he's gotta do I'm going back to bustin' ass and singing blues This livin easy's getting hard to do Keep it simple Man I'm tryin' Start out lovin' End up cryin' Loan me a dollar Some common sense Can't pay these credit cards on good looks and regrets Put a tombstone in the back yard one day Hand carved under my name it will say Here lies a man who found out far too soon This livin' easy's gotten way too hard to do 'Til the day that you walked into the room This livin easy's getting hard to do
