[Verse 1]
I hit the grown runnin' before the sun
Well, I'll grab a cup of coffee and a kiss before I run
Well, I'm always the first one and the boss says 'good job, son'
And he's proud of what I do, but I'm just puttin' in time
So I can spend the rest with you

[Chorus]
It takes a whole lotta hard work to make it look easy
It's the things people don't see
Makes it look like I got it made
It takes a whole lot of hard work to make it look easy
And baby, believe, your love
Keeps me working this way

[Verse 2]
I know we had our ups and downs
But we give and we take and we find our middle ground
Well, my friends all tell me they give all they have
To be where we are, but this road ain't for the week
Or the faint at heart

[Chorus X2]
It takes a whole lotta hard work to make it look easy
It's the things people don't see
Makes it look like I got it made
It takes a whole lot of hard work to make it look easy
And baby, believe, your love
Keeps me working this way
