Good Lovin` Ain`t Easy To Come By Lyrics

(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

 

 (with Tammi Terrell)

 

 BOTH: Good lovin' ain't easy

 Good lovin' ain't easy

 Good lovin' ain't easy to come by

 HIM: Oh, darlin', that's the kind you offer me

 It's just the love to be found

 HER: 'Cause we're workin' on a buildin' nobody can tear down

 BOTH: Look what we've got, ho-ho-ho-honey

 

 BOTH: Good lovin' ain't easy

 Good lovin' ain't easy, darlin'

 Good lovin' ain't easy to come by, oh no no

 HIM: I've tried the good life and I know

 It's a playground where no one cares

 HER: But at last you'll find out that don't compare

 BOTH: To what we've got, ho-ho-ho-honey

 

 BOTH: It takes more than just a song and dance

 You've got to work and fight to give it a chance

 HIM: If the rain comes down on us

 And there ain't no place to run

 HER: We'll just cover ourselves with a blanket of love

 And wait till the mornin' comes

 HIM: Oh baby, let's do it today

 HER: Inflection

 BOTH: Give us protection

 

 BOTH: Good lovin' ain't easy to come by

 HIM: Some think it's a plaything

 You can toss away when it's old

 HER: But when love's valued in pieces

 It's worth more than gold

 BOTH: That's what we've got

 

 Fading sequence:

 HER: Good lovin' ain't easy to come by

 over HIM: Oh, oh, it ain't easy
