Lyrics
Girl you've got me in a state
So much moanin' irritates
But your sweet lovin' compensates
Well just about
I can't say how much it aches
To hear about all my mistakes
But then your kiss is all it takes
Well just about
When the gripin' gets too much
And I'm just about to leave
You use that magic touch
And you pull somethin' from your sleeve
And in spite of all the grief you put me through
It's just about worth stayin' here with you
My head is banging with the sound
Of all the gripes that you lay down
And even so I'm stickin' round
Well just about
You don't know how much it stings
Hearing you list all those things
But I'm soothed by the warmth you bring
Well just about
When the triflin' gets too much
And I'm just about to leave
You use that magic touch
And you pull somethin' from your sleeve
And I can't help myself for what's a man to do
When it's just about worth stayin' here with you
Instrumental
I go out and you complain
I come in and it's the same
Then with a squeeze you kill the pain
Well just about
While I'm list'nin' to you drone
I'm wond'rin' why I haven't gone
But those curves keep me hangin' on
Oh just about
When the grouchin' gets too much
And I'm just about to leave
You use that magic touch
And you pull somethin' from your sleeve
And I can't help myself for what's a man to do
it's just about worth stayin' here with you
Oh When the gripin' gets too much
And I'm just about to leave
You use that magic touch
And you pull somethin' from your sleeve
And in spite of all the grief you put me through
It's just about worth stayin' here with you
Oh I guess it's just about worth stayin' here with you
Oh it's just about worth stayin' here
But baby let me make this clear
It's only just about worth staying here with you
