| When you go up on the mountain top
 | 
| And you look out across the sea
 | 
| And you know there’s another place perhaps
 | 
| A young man like me can be
 | 
| And you jump down to the rooftop
 | 
| Look out across the town
 | 
| And you know there’s a lot of strange things
 | 
| Circulatin' round
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| Well, the people they got their problems
 | 
| But that ain’t nothing new
 | 
| Tell the faces and understanding
 | 
| Well it can get you on through
 | 
| It can get you to a feeling
 | 
| It can take you to the end
 | 
| It can take up right up and let you down again
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| Satisfaction, satisfaction, tell me who is satisfied
 | 
| When she take it in
 | 
| And she hold it deep inside
 | 
| Hold it in too deep
 | 
| She bite you with her teeth
 | 
| Oh woman, oh woman, oh woman, can you give me some kind of relief
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down
 | 
| It ain’t easy,
 | 
| It ain’t easy, it ain’t easy
 | 
| To go ahead when your going' down |
