(It don't come easy, you know it don't come easy)
(It don't come easy, you know it don't come easy)

Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
Now you don't have to shout or leap about
You can even take it easy
Forget about the past and all your sorrow
The future won't last
It will soon be your tomorrow

I don't want much, I only want for trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don't come easy
Open up your heart, let's come together
Use a little luck, and we will make it work out better

It don't come, oohh no, you know it don't come easy
It don't come, oohh no, you know it don't come easy

Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
As you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even take it easy
Please remember peace is what we make it
It's here within your reach, you are big enough to take it

I don't ask for much, I only want trust
You know it don't come easy
This love of mine is growing all the time
