Well, I’ve built my life around you, did what I thought was right
But you never cared about me, now I’ve seen the light
Oh, darlin'
There ain’t no pleasing you
You seemed to think that everything I ever did was wrong
I should’ve known it all along
Oh, darlin'
There ain’t no pleasing you
You only had to say the word
And you knew I’d do it
You had me where you wanted me
But you went and blew it
Now everything I ever done
Was only done for you
But now you can go and do
Just what you wanna do
I’m telling you
'Cause I ain’t gonna be made to look a fool no more
You done it once too often, what do you take me for?
Oh, darlin'
There ain’t no pleasing you
You seem to think that everything I ever did was wrong
I should’ve known it all along
That, darlin'
There ain’t no pleasing you
You only had to say the word
And you knew I’d do it
You had me where you wanted me
But you went and blew it
Now everything I ever done
Was only done for you
But now you can go and do
Just what you wanna do
I’m telling you
'Cause I ain’t gonna be made to look a fool no more
You done it once too often, what do you take me for?
Oh, darlin'
There ain’t no pleasing you
And if you think I don’t mean what I say and I’m only bluffing
You’ve got another thing coming, I’m tellin' you that for nothing
Oh, darlin', I’m leaving
That’s what I’m gonna do
No lie, Chas lived near me in Herts and used to see him in Sainsburys all the time. The urge to ask him if he was there for rabbit was strong, but I never said it. Wish I had. RIP Chas, legend.
Not being British, I love these guys. I feel so privileged to have seen them live twice (in Brighton) Chas & Dave are one of the reasons I love this country!
I once gigged with these guys in Glenmavis, near Airdrie, not only were they total Gentlemen, they were a fantastic act, the entire audience left the room floating on euphoria ...these guys are REAL stars !!
