Lyrics
(IF YOU) KEEP ON HURTING ME

I?m stuck in a rut, trying to make a buck until that whistle blows at 3:00
I punch that clock, jump in the ole pickup and throw my lunch pail on that torn and broken seat
Baby I'm trying to bring it all home to you
But you're never satisfied no matter what I do
Keep on hurting me; tell me what I?ve wronged this time
Did I not buy you roses, or earn that extra dime?
Keep on hurting me; I need a little more pain to learn
My heart is made of muscle to take on all your burn
On the other hand I just may leave if you keep on hurting me
My grit is strong; no matter what you throw at it I?ll manage to overcome the chill you show
Your mind is frank, it reminds me every day that I?m not worthy and frankly I don?t need to know
So tell me aren?t you privileged to own a dirt poor man?
Go ahead and pound me down, but take me for who I am, baby
Oh, keep on hurting me
Keep on hurting me
Oh! Keep hurting me
Keep on hurting me
Oh! Keep on - keep on pounding this old school of hard knocks man
My patience is a virtue but my line's drawn in the sand
Oh! Keep on - keep on hurting me; tell me what I?ve wronged this time
Did I not buy you roses, or earn that extra dime?
Keep on hurting me; I need a little more pain to learn
My heart is made of muscle just to take on all your burn
On the other hand I just may leave if you keep on hurting me
Keep on hurting me
Keep on - keep on hurting me
Keep on hurting me
Keep on hurting me
