All men have secrets and here is mine, so let it be known

For we have been through hell and high tide

I can surely rely on you

And yet you start to recoil

Heavy words are so lightly thrown

But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you



So what difference does it make?

So what difference does it make?

It makes none, but, now you have gone

And you must be looking very old tonight



The devil will find work for idle hands to do

I stole and I lied, and why ? Because you asked me to

But now you make me feel so ashamed

Because I've only got two hands

Well I'm still fond of you, aha ho



So what difference does it make?

What difference does it make?

It makes none, but, now you have gone

And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight



Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do

I stole and then I lied just because you asked me to

But now you know the truth about me

You won't see me anymore

Well I'm still fond of you, aha ho



But no more apologies

No more apologies

I'm too tired

I'm so sick and tired

And I'm feeling very sick and ill today

But I'm still fond of you, aha ho
