Lyric High Cost Of Loving

(Allen Jones/Sherwin Hamlett)

The price is gettin higher every day
When it comes to good loving it s the same old way
The high cost of love it s getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get the more I have to pay.

I came home with the groceries, you said you need some more
I gave you my last two dollars, you said you need 3 or 4
The hight cost of love it s getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get the more I have to pay.

I bought you a leather coat, you said you wanted a mink
The way you spend my money you think you re married to a bank
The high cost of love it s getting higher every day
Seems like the less I make, Lord, the more I have to pay.

Where I live they want to raise my rent
Before I make a dollar you know it s already spent
The high cost of love it s getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get, Oh, the more I have to pay
Seems like the less I get, Oh, the more I have to pay.
