Twenty years ago |
|
Saw a friend was walking by |
|
And I stopped him on the street to ask him |
|
How it went and all he did was cry |
|
And I looked him in the face |
|
But I couldn't see past his eyes |
|
I asked him what the problem was |
|
He says, here's your disguise |
|
Now he's hardly getting over it |
|
He's hardly getting used to getting by |
|
Now he's hardly getting over it |
|
He's hardly getting used to getting by, by |
|
Old man lays |
|
Down by the railroad tracks |
|
Got no paper on his pocket |
|
Got no paper on his back |
|
And I asked him what the time was |
|
He says, hit the road now, Jack |
|
Went back to see him next week |
|
He died of a heart attack and died away |
|
Now he's hardly getting over it |
|
He's hardly getting used to getting by |
|
He's hardly getting over it |
|
He's hardly getting used to getting by, by |
|
Grandma, she was sick |
|
And she is gonna die |
|
And grandpa had a seizure |
|
Moved into a hotel cell and died away |
|
My parents |
|
They just wonder |
|
When they both are gonna die |
|
And what'll I do when they die? |
|
Well, I'm hardly getting over it |
|
Hardly getting used to getting by |
|
Hardly getting over it |
|
Hardly getting used to getting by, by |
|
Well, I'm hardly getting over it |
|
Hardly getting by |
|
Hardly getting over it |
|
Hardly getting by |
|
Hardly getting over it |
|
Hardly getting by |
|
Can hardly get it over it |
|
Can hardly get by, by, goodbye |
|
Hardly getting over it |
