Lyrics

THIS THANG CALLED LOVE

WITH A HOMEMADE POLE AND A CAN OF WORMS
DOWN ON THE CREEK BANK IS WHERE I LEARNED
WITH PATIENCE COMES A WELL DESERVED PRIZE
IT TOOK THE DEVIL HIMSELF NIPPIN' AT MY HEELS
TO TEACH ME THE POWER OF A WAY AND A WILL
WISDOM OF RIGHT AND WRONG WALK A REAL THIN LINE
I LEARNED ALL ABOUT HOPE WITH A LOUISVILLE SLUGGER
AND A MICKEY MANTLE GLOVE
BUT I CAN'T GET THE HANG OF THIS THANG CALLED LOVE

THIS THANG CALLED LOVE SHO IS A MYSTERY
EVERY TIME I TRY MY LUCK IT GETS THE BEST OF ME
I CALLED ON MY MAMA, CALLED ON MY PAPA
CALLED ON THE POWERS ABOVE
BUT I CAN'T GET THE HANG OF THIS THANG CALLED LOVE

I TOOK A LOT OF WHOPPINS FOR THE GOLDEN RULE
GAVE A LOT OF GRIEF BACK IN MY OLD SCHOOL
DIDN'T GET NO SCHOLARSHIP BUT I GOT BY
I FOUND MY WAY THROUGH EVERY HARD LEARNED LESSON
BUT THE ROAD AHEAD LOOKS ROUGH
CAUSE I CAN'T GET THE HANG OF THIS THANG CALLED LOVE

THIS THANG CALLED LOVE SHO IS A MYSTERY
EVERY TIME I TRY MY LUCK IT GETS THE BEST OF ME
I CALLED ON MY MAMA, CALLED ON MY PAPA
CALLED ON THE POWERS ABOVE
BUT I CAN'T GET THE HANG OF THIS THANG CALLED LOVE
I AIN'T WORTH A DANG AT THIS THANG CALLED LOVE

BUT I'LL NEVER GIVE UP TRYING
