I'll never be your beast of burden
My back is broad but it's a-hurtin'
All I want is for you to make love to me
I'll never be your beast of burden
I've walked for miles, my feet are hurtin'
All I want is for you to make love to me
Am I hard enough?
Am I rough enough?
Am I rich enough?
But I'm not too blind to see, yeah
I'll never be your beast of burden
So let's go home, girl, and draw the curtains
Music on the radio said
Come on, baby, make sweet love to me
Yeah, all your sickness, I can suck it up
Throw it all at me, baby, I can shrug it off
There's one thing, baby, I just can't understand
You keep tryin' to tell me I ain't your kind of man
Ain't I rough enough?
Ain't I tough enough?
Ain't I rich enough, in love enough?
Please, please
Please, please
Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty little girl
Pretty, pretty, such a pretty, pretty little girl
Come on, baby
Please, please, please
You can put me out
Out on the street
Put me out
With no shoes on my feet
Put me out, put me out
Put me out of misery, yeah
I'll never be your beast of burden
Don't need no fussin', I don't need no nursin'
All I want is for you to make love to me
I'll never be your beast of burden
I'll never be your beast of burden
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never
