I've Been Trying - Curtis Mayfield, The Impressions

I’ve been tryin'

Lord knows that I’ve been tryin'

To understand why

Can’t I be your only man

You say you love me

So sincere that I believed you loved me

Yet I can’t understand why

Can’t I be your only man

Day after day

You treat me any old way

I wanna go but my heart says no

You act so strange

But my love still remains

It says keep on tryin', boy

She’s gonna change

I’ve been tryin'

Lord knows that I’ve been tryin'

To understand why

Can’t I be your only man

Keep on tryin'

Woo ooh ooh ooh

Keep on tryin'

Woo ooh ooh ooh

Keep on tryin'

Woo ooh ooh ooh

Keep on tryin'
