Feelin' blue, but some of you
May not have a single clue
But I'm gonna tell ya, mabye right now
Where it happened, when and how
I went to the bar, got kicked out
Had a lotta serious doubt
But I'll work it out, without doubt
Get back on top of things
Hard Life Blues
Lifes lettin' me down
Hard Life Blues
After the bar, I ran far
Far outta town
Had to think about life, and it's problems
And why they're gettin' me down
I had a lot of debts, from all the bets
I stupidly made
But i got a job, and I'll succeed
I'll earn back all the money I need
Hard Life Blues
Lifes lettin' me down
Hard Life Blues
Lifes gettin me down (fades out)
