Black and Blue

Oh, my daddy and his daddy before me
I'm here to tell you, sometimes the apple, it falls far from the tree
I ain't sayin' I didn't learn a thing or two
But lovin' gets you only so far
And you don't know nothin' 'til you're black and blue

'Cause love makes you strong
But may do you wrong
And time moves you on
But I ain't looking back
No, I ain't looking back

I've been on the drink in the afternoon
Not 'cause I'm feeling bad, just honey, 'cause I want to
Oh, these hands were made to sin
The moment I break your heart
I throw you in the bed and fix it up again

'Cause love makes you strong
But may do you wrong
And time moves you on
But I ain't looking back
No, I ain't looking back

Whoa, whoa, whoa
You give more than I can take
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I think I'll keep it that way
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Some days, they never change

'Cause love makes you strong
But may do you wrong
And time moves you on

Would you keep me alone? (Yeah, yeah)
Love makes you strong (whoa-oh-oh)
Love makes you strong (whoa)
May do you wrong (yeah)
May do you wrong
Time moves you on (through it all)
Time moves you on (oh, yeah, honey)
You keep me alone
You keep me alone
