by 
Albert Collins 
recording of 1983 
from 
Don't Lose Your Cool (Alligator ALCD-4730) 
They tell me love is like quicksand, can't stop when you're sinkin' down 
Tell me love is like quicksand, you can't stop when you're sinkin' down 
My gal lead me down to the suction and I know I just can't turn around 
She's a hardheaded woman, an' she always treat me wrong 
She's a hardheaded woman, an' she always treat me wrong 
She treat me so bad, that's when she make me weep an' moan 
Hey! 
She's a hardheaded woman, she always treat me wrong 
I'm sick an' down baby, 'cause you always treat me wrong 
My handle raised for help, won't you listen to me weep an' moan? 
Hey!
