Got to pay your dues
If you want to sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout
Or leap about
You can even play them easy
Forget about the past and all your sorrow
The future won't last
It will soon be over tomorrow

I don't ask for much
I only want your trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine
Keeps growing all the time
And you know it just ain't easy
Open up your heart
Let's come together
Use a Little love and we will make it work out better

Got to pay your dues
If you want to sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout
Or leap about
You can even play them easy

Peace remember peace
Is hell we make it
Here within your reach
If you're big enough to take it

I don't ask for much
I only want your trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine
Keeps growing all the time
And you know it just ain't easy
