I'll never be your beast of burden
My back is broad but it's a-hurting
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 hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me.
Am I hard enough?
Am I rough enough?
Am I rich enough?
I'm not too blind to see.
I'll never be your beast of burden
So let's go home and draw the curtains
Music's on the radio
Come on, baby, make sweet love to me.
Am I hard enough?
Am I rough enough?
Am I rich enough?
I'm not too blind to see.
Oh little sister
Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty girl
Pretty, pretty
Such a pretty, pretty, pretty girl
Come on, baby, please, please, please.
I'll tell you, you can put me out on the street
Put me out with no shoes on my feet
But, put me out, put me out,
Put me out of misery.
Yeah, all your sickness I can suck it up
Throw it all at me, I can shrug it off
There's one thing baby that I don't understand
You keep on telling me I ain't your kind of man.
Ain't I rough enough? Oh honey
Ain't I tough enough?
Ain't I rich enough? In love enough?
Oh please
I'll never be your beast of burden
I'll never be your beast of burden
Never, never, never, never, never, never, never be
