Hard Life

And it's a hard life

For a man with no wife

Babe, it's a hard life

God makes you live

But without it

Don't doubt it

You don't even have

Your tears to give

I wake up and I'm fine

With my dreamings still on my mind

But it don't take long, you see

For the demons to come and visit me

And I've got my problems

Sometimes love don't solve them

And I end each day

In a song

And it's a hard life

For a man with no wife

Lord, it's a hard life

God makes you live

But without it

Baby, don't doubt it

You don't even have

Your tears to give

I know I'm a hard man

To live with sometimes

Maybe it ain't in me

To make you a happy wife of mine

Maybe you'll kill me

Honey I don't blame you

If I was in your place

Maybe that's what I would do

But I ain't breathing, let me breathe

Let me go, let me leave

I don't know, but I might lose

I might bum, might blow a fuse

So let me go

Lay it down

On my own

Let me drown

Let me go

Go where you don't know
