Now the clock says it's time |
|
Rise and smell the daily grind, no breaking free |
|
Another day, hedge and bets |
|
All this work is gonna get the best of me |
|
Such a hard life |
|
And you pull the shades, make me smile |
|
Pull the cotton sheets up over our heads |
|
Hear you say, let's stay in bed a little while longer |
|
Outside, it's a hard life but that's alright |
|
Hurry up, talk the talk, say 'yes sir' when you wanna walk |
|
And bite you tongue |
|
You tell yourself, you're paying due |
|
The trouble is you know the truth, you ain't that young |
|
It's a hard life |
|
And you pull the shades, make me smile |
|
Pull the cotton sheets up over our heads |
|
Hear you say, let's stay in bed a little while longer |
|
Outside, it's a hard life but that's alright, yes it is |
|
Baby, let me tell you what |
|
Gotta let this hard life stuff |
|
Gotta let it go, let it go |
|
Right on by us |
|
And you pull the shades, make me smile |
|
Pull the cotton sheets up over our heads |
|
Hear you say, oh, let's stay in bed a little while longer |
|
Outside, it's a hard life, yes it is, baby |
|
Outside, it's a hard life, oh, but that's alright |
|
Oh, yes it is, ooh |
