Lyrics

Well you go out on the mountain top, and you look out across the sea
And you know there's another place, perhaps that a young man could be
And you jump back down to the rooftops, and you look out across the town
And you know there's a lot of the strange things circulating around
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
All you people you got your problems, that ain't nothing new
With patience and understanding, you can get you through
It can get you through, Lord, and take you to the end
It can take you up, oh Lord, and let you down again
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
Yeah keep it going down
Satisfaction, satisfaction, tell me who is satisfied?
Well she take it and she hold it out, deep down inside
Well she holds it deep inside, Lord, and she bites you with her teeth
All the woman really wants, Lord, she can give her some relief
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
It ain't easy, it ain't easy
It ain't easy to go to heaven when you're going down
