Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You slam doors Like you slam my name Turn small things Into full-blown flames You say you want A good strong man Then you fight me Every time I take your hand [Chorus] It’s hard to love a hard head Baby You don’t hear a word I say You say you want a home and a good bed But you push Push Push me away I need a woman Not a war in my bed Lord It’s hard Hard to love a hard head [Verse 2] You talk sharp Cut me to the bone Turn our kitchen To a battle zone You call it “just Tellin’ me your truth” But respect been missing Since we left our youth [Chorus] It’s hard to love a hard head Baby You don’t hear a word I say You say you want a home and a good bed But you push Push Push me away I need a woman Not a war in my bed Lord It’s hard Hard to love a hard head [Bridge] I don’t need a servant Girl I just need some peace A little kindness in your voice So this tension can release Talk to me gentle When the day’s been long We could be lovers Not two fighters clawing on [Chorus] It’s hard to love a hard head Baby You don’t hear a word I say You say you want a home and a good bed But you push Push Push me away I need a woman Not a war in my bed Lord It’s hard Hard to love a hard head [Outro] (hard head, hard heart) Can we lay these weapons down (hard head, hard heart) Or I’ll be packin’ up Leavin’ town ’Cause it’s hard So hard to love a hard head

Smoky 70s soul-blues groove, male vocals. Lazy rimshot drums and warm bass hold a slow sway; dry wah guitar answers the vocal phrases. Rhodes and organ pads fill the gaps, horns slide in on the chorus with stacked harmonies. Vocal arc starts conversational and fed up, builds to a raspy, churchy belt on the hook, with a short ad-libbed vamp at the end for live band energy., soul, blues, r&b
