Ooh, ooh (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Wake up, it's five o'clock in the morning, I was dreaming I was home in bed

But when I opened my eyes and looked around, I found I was somewhere else instead

Now I know it's not right to stay out all night, but that's the situation that I'm in

How can I face that woman inside with no explanation where I've been?

It's easy coming out

Oh, but it's hard going in

But it's easy coming out

Oh, Lord, but it's hard going in

Just last week, I made her a promise I wouldn't stay out no more

But that outside woman's loving arms, they just wouldn't let me go

Now, here I stand with my hat in my hand, trying to figure out how to get back in

She's forgiven me so many times before, but her patience is wearing thin

Easy coming out, Lord

But it's hard going in

But it's easy coming out

You know that it's hard going in

To see a nervous sugar, I'm worried deep down inside

It would be so easy to walk on in if I didn't have something to hide

Easy coming out

Ooh, but it's hard going in

It's easy coming out

Don't you know that it's hard going in?

You know, it's easy coming out

But it's hard going in

You know, it's easy coming out

But it's hard going in

Don't you know I said it's easy coming out

But it's hard going in

It's easy coming out

But it's hard going in
