Hard Life Songtext
von Eddie Money

It ain′t easy

People talk
I don't care what they say
In the long run
Gonna do it my way

Had some breaks
Paid for my mistakes
Lord knows I′ve had my share
Of heartaches

Now I've learned to see
What my daddy always tried to tell me

It's a hard life
Living on your own
It ain′t easy
So far from home

It′s a hard life
And it's lonely, too
When you trying to find a friend or two
To stand by you


Said it wasn′t easy

The simple dreams
I never understood
Local boy
Trying to make it good

Take my life
I tried to calculate it
The price I paid
I underestimated

Late at night in bed
I think of what my momma said

It's a hard life
Living on your own
Things are never easy
When you′re far from home

It's a hard life
And it′s lonely, too
When you're trying to find a friend or two
To stand by you


You go where you want
Don't let them tie you down
Do what you want
Can′t let them push you ′round
It's never, never easy
Oh, oh, oh

Now and then
The road, it gets tough
It′s a struggle
Just to get enough

It's a hard life
And it takes its toll
Before his time
A man grows old

It′s a hard life
And it's lonely, too
When you′re looking for a friend or two
To stand by you, yeah

It ain't easy
Oh, oh, oh

It's a hard life
Living on your own
Said it wasn′t easy
When you′re far from home

It's a hard life
And it′s lonely, too
You're looking for a friend or two
They′d be standing next to you

Said it's never easy
