"Trying To Ruin My Life" lyrics

"Trying To Ruin My Life"

Every step I make, oh lord, observe for you, girl
You trying to ruin my life, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I've got, I work for it honestly, can you see
So why, must you try to ruin my life

You tryin' to rip me off, but there is one thing you got to be sure of
I am not a thief, I'm a man who work honestly, can you see
So girlie, come with good encouragment
And don't you come around me, a with your bad, bad argument
Can you see
Oh, girl

You trying to ruin my life, but there is one thing I want you to do
Jah give me my talent, baby, to make lot of songs for you
So, when you come around me, come with your intelligency
Can you see
So, why
You trying to ruin my life
You trying to ruin my life

Every step I make, oh lord, observe for you, girl
You trying to ruin my life, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I own, I work for it honestly, can you see
So why, must you try to ruin my life
You tryin' to rip me off, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I own, is by the sweat of my brow, can you see

You trying to ruin my life
Baby, you trying to ruin my life
You trying to ruin

You trying to ruin my life, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I own, is by the sweat of my brow
So why, must you try to ruin my life
You trying to ruin my life, but there is one thing I want you to do

I work so hard for my bread honestly, can you see
I always put my shoulder, my shoulder, my shoulder to the wheel
So, must you tryin to ruin my life
Why you must ruin my life

You tryin' to rip me off, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I own, is by the sweat of my brow
So why, must you tryin to tryin to ruin my life
You trying to ruin my life

Rip me off, but there is one thing I want you to do
Every little thing I own, is by the sweat of my brow
Always, with my, shoulder to the wheel, oh baby, can you see
So why, must you tryin to ruin my life
You trying to ruin my life
