You run around town like a fool and you think that it's groovy
You're givin' it to some other guy who gives you the eye
You don't give nothin' to me


You painted a smile and you dress all the while to excite me.
But don't you know you're turning me on I know that it's wrong,
But I can't stop the pain inside me.


Baby, love really hurts without you,
Love really hurts without you,
And it's breaking my heart,
But what can I do,


Baby, Love really hurts without you,
Love really hurts through and through
And it's breaking my heart
But what can I do without you?


You walk like a dream and you make like you're Queen of the action
You're using ev'ry trick in the book, the way that you look
You're really something to see,
You cheat and you lie to impress any guy that you fancy,
But don't you know I'm out of my mind, so give me a sign
And help to ease the pain inside me.


Baby, love really hurts without you,
Love really hurts without you,
And it's breaking my heart,
But what can I do, baby,


Love really hurts without you,
Love really hurts through and through
And it's breaking my heart
But what can I do without you?
(Repeat to fade)

Baby here I am and I'm a man upon the scene
I can give you what you want, but you got to come home with me
I got a whole lot of good ole loving and I got some in store
When I get through throwin' it on to you got to come back for more


Boys and things will come by the dozen
Ain't nothin' but drug store love
Pretty little thing let me light your candle
Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now yes I am.


Action speaks louder than words and I'm a man with great experience
I know you got another man, but I can love you better than him
Take my hand, don't be afraid I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertising love for free so won't you place your ad with me?


Boys and things will come by the dozen
Ain't nothin' but drug store love
Pretty little thing let me light your candle


Give it to me baby, I got to have it, some of your love
It's all I need, early in the morning, late in the evening
