Hard Out Here Lyrics - Singles - Garrett Hedlund

Well, after all these years of running 'round 

Always flying high and fallin' down 

I gotta get back to the way I was 

Gonna turn it all 'round just because 

And everybody's talkin' about the shape I'm in 

They say "boy, you ain't a poet, just a drunk with a band." 

All over and over, again and again, 

Lord, they don't know about the places I've been 

It gets hard out here 

I know it don't look it 

I used to have heart, but the highway took it 

The game was right, but the deal was crooked 

Lord, I'll make it perfectly clear, it gets hard out here 

I guess there must be something I'm missing 

My momma told me I should've gone into easy listenin' 

Going with the band 'cause I thought it was cool 

Oh, good Lord, I should've gone back to school 

Oh, pretty darlin', it'll be okay 

You know one of these days I'm gonna take you away 

She said, "oh, sweet daddy, you're probably right, 

You know we might get lucky, but it won't be tonight" 

It gets hard out here 

I know it don't look it 

I used to have heart, but the highway took it 

The game was right, but the deal was crooked 

Lord, I'll make it perfectly clear, it gets hard out here 

I know it don't seem it 

I said I tried, but I never did mean it 

Nobody's listening so we mine as well scream it 

Oh, God, we're all outta beer 

It gets hard out here
