They tell me love is like quicksand
Can't stop when you're sinkin' down
Tell me love is like quicksand
Can't stop when you're sinkin' down
My gal lead me down to the suction
And I know, I just can't turn around
She's a hardheaded woman
An' she always treat me wrong
She's a hardheaded woman
An' she always treat me wrong
She treat me so bad
That's when she make me weep and moan
Hey
She's a hardheaded woman
She always treat me wrong
I'm sick an' down baby
'Cause you always treat me wrong
My hand raised for help
Won't you listen to me weep and moan?
