Ain’t Good Enough For You

Well you don’t like, don’t like the way I walk
And you don’t like, don’t like the way I talk
You criticize about me endlessly
Like it defies, how you got stuck with me

And you complain, about the clothes I wear
And you explain there’s other boys out there
And you complain my car makes too much noise
And you cry, I’m always out with the boys

I give up little darlin
Yeah no matter what I do, and you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you

You complain the way I love you at night
You explain I’m really not your type
If we go out, you say I’m such a bore
If you stay in, say “what are we living for?”

I don’t understand, there’s nothing I can do
There ain’t no way, no way to satisfy you
And in the night, I lean in for a kiss
You close the pitch, swing and a miss

I quit little darling
Yeah no matter what I do, yeah you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you

Hey hey little darling
No matter what I do, and you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you

I tried to change, I got a job in sales
I bought a shirt, uptown in Bloomindales
And babe I tried, to make the latest scene
Hip and cool, just like Jimmy Iovine

I bought a record with all the latest grooves
A book of love, with all the latest moves
I bought some flowers, and I waited at your door
And you came out, didn’t want to see me no more

I quit little darling
Yeah no matter what I do, and you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you

No matter what I do, girl you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you

No matter what I do, girl you know it’s true
Ain’t good enough for you
