The Price I Pay To Stay Lyrics - Singles - Riley Jeannie C

(Ed Bruce) 

There was a time I really thought it did some good 

To get down on my knees to you and I would 

But baby now that's all changed today's a brand new day 

And you ain't worth the price I pay to stay. 

Just because you're the best looking man that I've ever seen 

Ain't reason enough to have to treat you like a king 

There's a harder lesson you need to learn and it might as well be today 

Baby you ain't worth the price I pay to stay. 

I'm tired of tryin' to turn the other cheek to you 

And never knowin' which way to turn cause you've made up 

A brand new set of rules 

Somewhere I picked up a little more pride than I had yesterday 

Baby you ain't worth the price I pay to stay. 

--- Instrumental --- 

I'm tired of tryin' to turn the other cheek to you 

And never knowin' which way to turn cause you've made up 

A brand new set of rules 

Somewhere I picked up a little more pride than I had yesterday 

Baby you ain't worth the price I pay to stay...
