easy to love so hard to get

Skeeter Davis

I recall what I said to myself the very first day we met
It s just a matter of time till I make him mine and then I found to my regret
He was easy to love but so hard to get
All the girls are crazy for him and that he already knows
I took a look in his little black book and the competition surelly stopped me
He s easy to love but so hard to get
But if at first you don t succeed you know you got to try and try again
And if at first he don t follow your leave
You got to keep on goin after him until you win
Don t you know you ll never love a guy who s easy to get that wouldn t be much fun
There s never a guy a standing right by there s always got to be the one
Who s easy to love but so hard to get
[ guitar ]
Yes he s easy to love but so hard to get
But I can t forget he ll be mine it s just a matter of time
