Текст песни So Easy Going, So Hard Coming Back - Millie Jackson

Mama, did you really mean all that?
I mean, after ten years
You're gonna put the man on me
And make me take care of you and some other dude?

Well, I guess I really didn't mean all of it
It's just that I let my pride run away with me for a few minutes
I'm sorry...
But you see

It was so easy for you to say goodbye
I know you now realize that you made a mistake
But you took my heart
At least let me keep some pride for myself
'Cause even now, I would consider taking you back
But darling, it's the way you left

You just walked away
Without a word to say
It was easy
You just packed your clothes
Didn't let me know
That you were leaving

(Oh) You got your hat
Coat thrown across your back
And just walked right on out the door
Oh, but now you began to realize
That I'm not yours anymore

Now you find yourself
Trying to trace your track
Hey, hey, hey, baby (Ooh, Lord)
It was easy leaving me, baby
So hard coming back

You played around
With all the girls in town like
It was nothing to it
All the time
I played dumb and blind
Oh darling, you can bet I knew it (Yes, I did, now)

You broke my heart, tore it all apart
And just laughed and went on your way
Oh, but little did you realize (Huh)
You'd want me back someday

Now you find yourself
Trying to trace your track
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
It was easy leaving me, baby
So hard coming back
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lord

It was so easy leaving me, baby
I can't let you come back now, now
No, no, no, no, baby, I'm sorry, baby
I mean, I just can't do it to myself, I've seen it
