That Don't Make It Easy Loving Me

(album: Long Trip Alone - 2006)

We were playing out in Vegas when this lady pressed her way up to the stage
I forgot what I was singing when she met me with her meet-me-later gaze
When she threw it on my mic stand I figured they were probably double-D's
That might make for a good story man
But that don't make it easy loving me

One time I met one of my heroes and he made me feel real good that I was there
'Cause whatever he was smoking man it had me spinning circles in my chair
I fell asleep on his bus in Texas but I woke up in Memphis, Tennessee
That might make for a good story man
But that don't make it easy loving me

[Chorus:]
But I got a woman
Let me tell you that she's something
You won't catch me doing nothing
To ever make her wanna leave
She knows how much I love her man
But that don't make it easy loving me

When you're living on a bus and you fill it up with a bunch of real good timing boys
Mix in applause and alcohol and honky tonks you know we're bound to make some noise
But this rake-and-rambling life helps me write the kind of songs I wanna sing
'Cause it makes for real good stories man
But that don't make it easy loving me

[Repeat Chorus]

Yeah she knows how much I love her man
But that don't make it easy loving me
