J. Geils Band, The - Love Stinks Lyrics






You love her
But she loves him
And he loves somebody else
You just can't win
And so it goes
'Til the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry
I've had the blues
The reds and the pinks
One thing for sure

(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah

Two by two and side by side
Love's gonna find you, yes, it is
You just can't hide
You'll hear it call
Your heart will fall
Then love will fly
It's gone, that's all
I don't care what any Casanova thinks
All I can say is

(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah

Shoo doo wop
Shoo doo wop
Shoo doo wop, shoop, shoop
Shoo doo wop
Shoo doo wop

I've been through diamonds
And I've been through minks
I've been through it all

(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
Breakdown

Love stinks (Love stinks)
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks (Love stinks)
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks (Love stinks)
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks (I mean it stinks)
Yeah, yeah

(Love stinks)
Love stinks (Love stinks)
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks (Love stinks)

    I also rejected a girl who wanted to date that I rejected over a better looking girl and we dated for about 3 months until I found out she had a drug habit and instead of dealing with that I looked up the first girl who wanted to date and unfortunately for me she was married with a child on the way...so I ended a marrying a girl that I thought would be for life but I wasn’t expecting a speed bump called adultery...we got a divorce and I found it very difficult to marry again until 15 years later...and this one lasted 26 years...
