Hard Time Losin Man

Jim Croce

Transposer:

[Intro] | | | | [Chorus] And you think you’ve seen trouble? Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man [Verse 1] Oh sometimes skies are cloudy And sometimes skies are blue And sometimes they say that you eat the bear But sometimes the bear eats you Well sometimes I feel like I should go Far far away and hide ’Cause I keep a waitin’ for my ship to come in And all that ever comes is the tide [Chorus] And you think you’ve seen trouble Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man [Verse 2] Oh I saved up all my money I gonna buy me a flashy car So I go downtown to see the man And he smokin’ on a big cigar Well he must’ve thought I were Rockefeller Or an uptown man of wealth He said "Boy I got the car that’s made for you And it’s cleaner than the Board of Health" [Bridge] Then I got on the highway Oh I feelin’ fine I hit a bump Then I found I bought a car held together by wire And a couple a’ hunks of twine [Chorus] And you think you’ve seen trouble Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man [Verse 3] Oh Friday night feelin’ right I head out on the street Standin’ in the doorway Was a dealer known as Pete Well he sold me a dime of some super fine Dynamite from Mexico I spent all that night just tryin’ to get right On an ounce of oregano [Outro] And you think you’ve seen trouble Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man And you think you’ve seen trouble Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man And you think you’ve seen trouble Well you’re lookin’ at the man ah-ha Oh the world’s own original hard luck story And a hard time losin’ man

Cette chanson raconte l’histoire d’un homme qui fait face à une série de malheurs et de déceptions. Il évoque les épreuves de la vie, comme des rêves qui ne se réalisent jamais et des promesses non tenues. À travers des métaphores, il illustre comment parfois c’est la vie qui nous piège, plutôt que l'inverse. Il partage ses expériences, comme l’achat d’une voiture qui s’avère être une déconvenue, ou ses tentatives de se divertir qui finissent mal. Le contexte de la chanson reflète une certaine réalité des années 70, où les luttes individuelles et les désillusions étaient omniprésentes. Cet homme se voit comme un symbole de ceux qui, malgré leurs efforts, se heurtent constamment à des obstacles. Il navigue à travers ses mésaventures avec une sorte d’auto-dérision, mais aussi une compréhension de sa situation difficile.
