Grayson Hugh - Hard Life Lyrics
Well my daddyHe went downDown to the mineAt the edge of townDown to the mountainIn the dark all dayJust to bring homeHis meager payHe's been working all his lifeTo make the best of itSometimes I'd look into his eyesAnd see the lightning of the yearsHard life, there must be something to itHard life, keep living itHard life, are we ever going to see itThat light, before the end of itWell my mamaYou know she taught meLessons of life and loveHow could she have knownWhat it would cost herAll those yearsShe gave to usSo many dreams I know she hadBy the waysideSometimes I'd look into her eyesAnd see the rainbow of her tearsHard life, must be something to itHard life, keep living itHard life, are we ever going to see itThat light nowIn a land so beautifulYou just can't ever leaveLike a lover, she's so wonderfulBut she only makes you grieveLonely people never speakingWhat they're feelingIt's a tragedy whenLife has lost it's meaningI want to shake you by the shouldersTil you're screamingHard life, hard life...
