Life ain't easy
It's a long, hard, rocky road
Well it's dog, dog eat dog
And survival of the fittest, so I'm told
No matter how hard you try
Life is hard and then you die
This old world is a tangle
You can't trust your closest friend
You know the devil wears a blue dress
And she's out to get you in the end
I can't count the tears I cry
Life is hard and then you die
Yeah, it's hard
Everybody
Got their own cross to bear
Black or white, rich or poor
You know the blues is everywhere
Just keep reaching for the sky
Life is hard and then you die
