Laying Too Low Too Long - Dr. Hook

Well here I am in the wind again, floating where it takes me

Laughin' and a splashin' in the summer sun, until the alarm clock awakes me

Then it’s coffee and a kiss and two cigarettes, and I’m back out in the cold,

cold weather

Chasin' my dream but I just can’t seem to rub two coins together

(Sing it)

Life ain’t easy, they never said it would be

Life ain’t easy, whoever said it should be

Life ain’t easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain’t easy, tell me all about it

Life ain’t easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain’t easy, and nothing comes free, for you or me

That woman she don’t understand, the way my mind keeps driftin'

And the Lord don’t always lend a hand, when my poor heart needs liftin'

Is home and kids really all there is, or is there something better?

And how much soul must a poor man sell to rub two coins together?

Don’t you know that

Life ain’t easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain’t easy, whoever said it would be

Life ain’t easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain’t easy, can you hear me

Life ain’t easy, tell me all about it

Life ain’t easy, and nothing comes free, free, free, free

Life ain’t easy, tell me all about it

Life ain’t easy, no, no, no, no

Life ain’t easy, and nothing comes free, for you or me

Life ain’t easy

Life ain’t easy…
