Easy To Love (hard To Hold) Lyrics - Stuart Marty

Written by Marty Stuart and Paul Kennerley 

There's a train a comin' and I need a ride 

Somewhere to run and somewhere to hide 

I'd love to stay here by your side 

But honey I'm hard to hold 

I was born running wild and free 

If you try to put a chain on me 

A trail of dust is all you'll see 

'Cause honey I'm hard to hold 

It's hard to hold a ramblin' man 

I'll slip through your fingers like a handful of sand 

My intentions are as good as gold 

Well, I'm easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

Easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

I've gotta get me back to Alabam 

There's something baby you must understand 

You can't slip a ring around a travelin' man 

Honey I'm hard to hold 

It's hard to hold a ramblin' man 

I'll slip through your fingers like a handful of sand 

My intentions are as good as gold 

Well I'm easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

Easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

I'm a travelin' man, by desire 

Tear it up and raise hell-fire 

I live my life up against the wire 

Honey I'm hard to hold 

There's a time for lovin' and time to leave 

I'll be back, I do believe 

I've got a wild card up my sleeve 

Honey I'm hard to hold 

It's hard to hold a ramblin' man 

I'll slip through your fingers like a handful of sand 

My intentions are as good as gold 

Well I'm easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

Easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

Easy to love but I'm hard to hold 

Easy to love but I'm hard to hold
