Why you workin' so hard, baby?
You could be makin' it easy
You know it pisses me off sometimes
When you start acting sleazy
I'm under so much pressure
You know there's not much blowin' up
Feelin' under the gun sometimes
Makes me feel like throwin' up
I said, "oh baby, you're pushin' too hard"
You're pushin' too hard, you say, lighten up
Well, don't ask me no questions
And i will tell you no lies
We've been down that road before
And it's me, not that other guy
And i never wanted to hurt you
I didn't mean to make you cry, yeah
You always get what you want from me, don't you?
With a tear drop in your eye
I said, "oh baby, you're pushin' too hard"
You're pushin' too hard, you got to lighten up
You're pushin' too hard, you're pushin' on me
You're pushin' too hard, baby, lighten up
I like it when you want it
Especially when you take it
When you really, really need it
That's when i know you're not faking it, ooh
Hey, gonna call in a doctor
Maybe get you on some pills
But then i started to worry about you, baby
Could be the pill that kills
I said, "oh baby, you're pushin' too hard"
You're pushin' too hard, you got to lighten up
Oh baby, you're pushin' too hard, lighten up
I said, "oh baby, you're pushin' too hard", you're pushin' too hard
Oh baby, come on, baby, come on, baby, lighten up, yeah
Oh baby, you're pushin' too hard
Oh baby, baby, lighten up
Pushin' too hard, you're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard, pushin' too hard
I say, oh baby, pushin' too hard
Oh baby, come on
Pushin' too hard, baby, lighten up, oh baby
