It Ain't Easy

When you go up on the mountain top

And you look out across the sea

And you know there's another place perhaps

A young man can be

And you jump down to the rooftop

And you look out across the town

And you know there's a lot of strange things

Circulatin' round

But it ain't easy,

It ain't easy, it ain't easy

To go ahead when your going' down

Well, the people have their problems

But that ain't nothing new

Well the hope and understanding

Can bring you on through

Well it can bring you on through

It can take you to the end

And that, ooh, woman, she can bring you down again

But it ain't easy,

It ain't easy, it ain't easy

To go ahead when your going' down

Satisfaction, satisfaction, tell me who is satisfied

When she, ooh, she take it in

And she hold it deep inside

And she hold it in too deep

And she bite it with her teeth

And that, ooh woman, she can give you some relief

But it ain't easy,

It ain't easy, it ain't easy

To go ahead when your going' down

It ain't easy when you're goin' down
