"High Cost Of Loving" lyrics - ALBERT KING

The price is getting
Higher every day
When it comes to good loving
It's the same old way

The high cost of love
Getting higher every day
The less I get
The more I have to pay

I came home with the groceries
You said you need some more
I gave you my last two dollars
You said you need three or four

The high cost of love
Getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get
The more I have to pay

I bought you a leather coat
You said you wanted a mink
The way you spend my money
You think, you're married to a bank

The high cost of love
Getting higher every day
Seems like the less I make
The more I have to pay

Where I live they want
To raise my rent
Before I make a dollar
You know it's, it's already spent

The high cost of love
Getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get
The more I have to pay

The high cost of love
Getting higher every day
Seems like the less I get
The more I have to pay
