Hard Life

歌詞

Well my daddy He went down Down to the mine At the edge of town Down to the mountain In the dark all day Just to bring home His meager pay He's been working all his life To make the best of it Sometimes I'd look into his eyes And see the lightning of the years Hard life, there must be something to it Hard life, keep living it Hard life, are we ever going to see it That light, before the end of it Well my mama You know she taught me Lessons of life and love How could she have known What it would cost her All those years She gave to us So many dreams I know she had By the wayside Sometimes I'd look into her eyes And see the rainbow of her tears Hard life, must be something to it Hard life, keep living it Hard life, are we ever going to see it That light now In a land so beautiful You just can't ever leave Like a lover, she's so wonderful But she only makes you grieve Lonely people never speaking What they're feeling It's a tragedy when Life has lost it's meaning I want to shake you by the shoulders Til you're screaming Hard life, hard life
