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 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 cried
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 (everywhere)
Just keep reachin' for the sky
Life is hard and then you die
