作曲 : Larrieux, Larrieux
I work hard for what I got
Plenty overtime
When I clock out I'm worn and beat down
But still ready to fly
here you come with those
unsteady eyes
like you been looking for
something you cannot find

right through me
like my fruit ain't fit for makin' pie
chorus
you got to
earn my affection
put your back into it
before we get this show on the road
don't make me

lose all my self respect
I ain't desperate yet so
come on now stop actin' out and act like you know
you're a beautiful mess
but every attic has a treasure
and I been known  to throw my apron on
and scrub to reveal a shine

let the good lord have
mercy on you
before I do
if you were in the area and just passing through
come correctly  come strong
and don't drag your good foot behind
you got to
earn my affection

put your back into it
before we get this show on the road
don't make me
lose all my self respect
I ain't desperate yet so
come on now stop actin' out and act like you know
you set a pretty table and serve me raw meat
ask me to the show but don't save me a seat

say together we can sail  then add me to your fleet
the perfect pair of pants are ruined with the
addition of a pleat
I demand a flat surface
Where I can
Firmly plant my feet
And stand
It's my democratic right to say man you should

Earn My Affections
put your back into it
before we get this show on the road
don't make me
lose all my self respect
I ain't desperate yet so
come on now stop actin' out and act like you know

Earn My Affections
put your back into it
before we get this show on the road
don't make me
lose all my self respect
I ain't desperate yet so
come on now stop actin' out and act like you know

you know  you know
come on now stop actin' out and act like you know
