The Hurting Business
by: Chuck ProphetYou hurt me
Baby and I hurt you
Sometimes we fake
Sometimes we jab
Sometimes we bounce
Right off the mat
Business is good
Business is good
Business is good
In the hurting business
The hurting business
We go
Ten rounds every day
In our dreams
We train and we train
We don't need no referee
Honey if you go down
You've gonna fall on me
Business is good
Business is good
Business is good
In the hurting business
In the hurting business
Oh yeah
In this ring
We call the world
Girl hurts boy
Boy hurts girl
We gonna float
Like we feel no pain
We'll make love
Like runaway train
Business is good
Business is good
Business is good
In the hurting business
