Daylight come and there's an aching in my head Give me back to me, I might as well be dead 'Cos I'm tryin' to get back to you, babe Yes, I'm tryin' to get back to you babe Yes, I'm tryin' to get back to you. Smiling lawnman got me sweeping out my cell Bust me open, got my picture, know me well And he's tryin' to make me go down And he's tryin' to make me go down, down, down And he's running me out of town It's a hard way to live, it's a hard way to live Walking wrong and talking wrong ain't helping It's a hard way to live, it's a hard way to live Trusting me then bursting me wide open. Papa Monday with his shaking making eyes Mama Monday smiling taking all his lies And she's tryin' to make out she don't care Yes, she's tryin' to make out she don't care And she's tryin' to make out she's cool. It's a hard way to live, it's a hard way to live Walking wrong and talking wrong ain't helping It's a hard way to live, it's a hard way to live Trusting me then bursting me wide open.
