Hard Out Here

Well after all these years of runnin’ around Always flyin’ high and fallin’ down I gotta get back to the way I was gonna turn it all around just because Everybody’s talkin about the shape I’m in They say boy you aint a poet just a drunk with a pen All over and over again and again Lord they don’t know about the places I been It gets hard out here I know it don’t look it I used to have heart but the highway took it The game was right but the deal was crooked Lord I’ll make it perfectly clear It gets hard out here! I guess there must be somethin’ - that I’m missin’ My momma told me I should’ve gone - easy listenin Joined up with a band cuz I thought it was cool Lord good Lord I should have gone back to school Oh pretty darlin it’ll be ok   You know one of these days I’m gonna take you away She said Oh sweet daddy. You’re probably right. You know we might get lucky but it won’t be tonight It gets hard out here I know it don’t look it I used to have heart but the highway took it The game was right but the deal was crooked Lord I’ll make it perfectly clear It gets hard out here.. I know it don’t seem it I said I’d try but I never did mean it Nobody’s listening we might as well scream it Oh God we’re all out of beer! It gets hard out here!
