Hard Livin’

I'm stranded in time
And the grass is green
It's Saturday night
And the air is clean
The bell in the church ringing out for me
And that woman who was five foot three
Where'd she go

Hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
Hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
It's hard livin'

I'm looking for words
But the words disappear
I watch for the road
But the road isn't clear
I search for the sun
See the sky fall down
Put a bullet through my dressing gown
Made a mess

And it's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
It's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
It's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
It's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down

One of these days
Gonna swim the sea
I've got a monkey
That's killing me
It's killing me

And it's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
Yes it's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
Yes it's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down
Yes it's hard, hard livin'
Hard livin' gonna drag me down

Gonna drag me down
Gonna drag me down
Gonna drag me down
