Little John took the easy way

He said bye bye to the light of day

He didn't need a gun and all

He went flying and he took a fall

There ain't no easy way

I said there ain't no easy way no no no no no

I could have told you there's no easy way

You've got to face it there's no easy way

Little Ann took the easy way

She said take the money and run away just

Lie down and look away

Save the money for a rainy day

No easy way

There ain't no easy way everyday rainy day

I could have told you there's no easy way

You've got to face it there's no easy way

You are so lovely you are so beautiful

Please don't cry please don't be miserable

You may have problems and you may want to die

Please don't worry let it all pass by

There's no easy way to shake off sorrow

Maybe the only way think about tomorrow

Ain't no easy way

I said there ain't no easy way no no no no no no

I could have told you there's no easy way

You've got to face it there's no easy way

I could have told you there's no easy way

You've got to face it there's no easy way
