Lyrics
It's Hard (Homeless Lament)
Bruce Danna
Down on my luck - Down and out
Down on the corner with my hand held out
Down by the Mission, they fill my cup
Someday I'll be looking up
But its hard - Oh Lord, its so hard
It's a crying shame and tomorrows the same
Well, it's hard. Oh Lord.
Well I used to have stuff - I used to have money
I had someone to call me 'Honey'.
Now all I have are these rags on my back
How'd my life get so out of whack
Oh, its hard - Oh Lord, its so hard
It's a crying shame and tomorrows the same
Well, its hard. Oh yeah.
(Bridge)
Day and night the back streets I roam
It aint much, but for now its home
Maybe someday I'll have what I'm dreaming of
But I, thank God that there's a God above... yeah.
(instrumental break)
O Lord. Lord, its hard.
My living room is a dirty old chair
My bedroom is the open air
My transportation is my own two feet
I wish I had something to eat
'Cause its hard - Oh my Lord, its hard
It's a crying shame and tomorrows the same
And its hard
Oh, it's a crying shame 'cause tomorrows the same
And it's hard. Lord, its hard.
So very hard. Oh yeah.
