Too Tough

Rolling Stones - Too Tough



If you want to wreck my life

Go ahead my love

Tried it once with poison

Tried it once with drugs

My circulation's running dry

It's you that drank me up

Screwed me down with kindness

Suffocating love

When it comes to fighting

Trying to play it rough

I will take you twenty rounds

I'm just too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough

Saw you on TV last night

In a rerun soap

You were young and beautiful

Already without hope

But I don't think you ever knew

What you've bitten off

But in the end, you spat me out

You could not chew me up

I'm too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough

When it comes to fighting

Trying to play it rough

I will take you twenty rounds

I'm just too tough, too tough

I married yesterday

To a teenage bride

You said it's only physical

But I love her deep inside

I still see you in my dreams

With a kitchen knife

With it poised above your head

Now who you gonna slice?

When it comes to fighting

Trying to play it rough

I will take you twenty rounds

I'm just too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough

I don't think you'll ever know

What you've bitten off

But in the end, you spat me out

You could not chew me up

I was too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough

Too tough

Too tough, too tough

Too tough, too tough
