Now write this down

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 you to make love to me

Ain't I hard enough
Ain't I rough enough
Ain't 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
Put some music on the radio
Come on baby make sweet love to me (Oh what's a matter with me?)

Ain't I hard enough
Ain't I rough enough
Ain't I rich enough
I'm not too blind to see

Oh oh my little sister
Is a pretty, pretty, girl
My little sister is a pretty, pretty, girl
She love to ride, and she loves to crawl
They love to take her out, behind the wall

And when their done, they just throw her away
And she don't have an awful lot to say
It hurts her so bad to come to the end
I re, I remember all the times she spent sayin', "Please!"

Ain't I hot enough?
Ain't I rough enough?
Ain't I rich enough?
I'm not too blind to see, oh oh
Oh, oh

I'll never be your beast of burden.
My back is broad, baby, but it's a' hurtin'.
And all I want is you to make love to me.

What's the matter, what's the matter with me?
Ain't I hot enough?
Ooh, yeah, ain't I rough enough?
Ooh, yeah, ain't I rich enough, rich enough, rich enough,
Too blind to see? Too blind, too blind, oh!

I'll never be your beast of burden.
I walk for miles, honey, my feet are hurtin'.
And all I want
