Hard woman
She wanted everything
Yes she did

And I gave her laughter
She wanted diamonds
 She was unfaithful, treated me cruelly
Where is the mercy? Where is the love?

They say passion has a funny way
Of burning down and running low
Suddenly it goes out
And you wonder where does it go

She's a hard woman to please
I've thought about letting her know
She's a hard woman to leave
I've thought about letting her go

She's a tough cookie, hard lady
I've got to say goodbye

I gave her laughter
She wanted diamonds
I was romantic, she treated me cruelly
Where is the mercy?

The fire of love is burning down
I hardly feel the the glow
Don't give it a chance to turn bitter
I'll deal it the final blow

She's a hard woman to please
And I've thought about letting her know
She's a hard woman to leave
I've thought about letting her go

 She's a tough cookie, rough lady
I've got to say goodbye

How can I say goodbye to my baby?

So long, honey

Goodbye baby
Whoo

I'm alone at last
And something inside of me knows
I could have loved in vain for a thousand years
I have to let her go

And time goes so fast
And new love starts so slow
I could have waited on line for a thousand years
I have to let her go

 She's a - she's a hard woman to please
Yes she is
She's a hard woman to please
Yes she is - oh yes she is

Mmm

 How can I say goodbye to my baby?
So long honey
How can I say goodbye
To my little girl?
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
She sure knows how to make me cry
How can I say goodbye?
Mmm she sure knows how to make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

 How can I say goodbye to my baby?
To my little girl
How can I say goodbye?
So long, so long, so long honey
How can I say goodbye to my baby?
So... ah... oh I got to leave you (...)
How can I say goodbye?
