Songtext Hard life Jo Dee Messina

Hard life

Now the clock, says it's time
Rise and smell the daily grind
No breakin free

Another day, hedge and bets
All this work is gonna get the best of me
Such a hard life

Then you pull the shades
Make me smile
Pull the cotton sheets up
Over our heads
Hear ya 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 your tongue
Tell yourself you're paying dues
The trouble is ya know the truth
Ya ain't that young
It's a hard life

Then you pull the shades
Make me smile
Pull the cotton sheets up
Over our heads
Hear ya say "let's stay in bed a little while longer"
Outside, it's a hard life, but that's alright

Baby let me tell ya 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 ya 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, but that alright
oh, Yes it is, oooh
