They tell me love is like quicksand, can't stop when you're sinkin' down
Tell me love is like quicksand, you can't stop when you're sinkin' down
My gal lead me down to the suction and I know I just can't turn around

She's a hardheaded woman, an' she always treat me wrong
She's a hardheaded woman, an' she always treat me wrong
She treat me so bad, that's when she make me weep an' moan
Hey!

She's a hardheaded woman, she always treat me wrong
I'm sick an' down baby, 'cause you always treat me wrong
My handle raised for help, won't you listen to me weep an' moan?

Hey!
