Hard Times for an Honest Man Lyrics

One man does his work
He磗 not satisfied not at all
Feels like that he磗 being used
His self respect starts to fall
His frustration
Runnin'very very high he takes it out
On the ones he loves, because it磗 safe
And who they gonna tell
And he hates that cold-bloodedness
That runs inside


CHORUS:
Oh yes
It磗 hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times

Sister,
She磗 got a lot of pride
You can see it when she walks into the room
But she磗 young
And she磗 unaware
Of what a brutal world can do to you
So she loves a man
He lies like a dog
Tears her little world all apart
So the walls go up
For the rest of her days
And there ain磘 no man can touch this
Girls heart

CHORUS:
Oh yes.
It磗 hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times

So we walk
From the front porch to the back yard
Just to laugh and say hello and
Say goodbye
But some days are hard, like a
Soldier磗 steel-toed boots
And the rent we pay to stay here
Gets high

CHORUS:
Oh yes.
It磗 hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
Hard times, for an honest man
Very very hard times
