Elton John - Hard Luck Story Lyrics
Written by ann orson and carte blancheAvailable on the album rock of the westiesSometimes I think Im going crazyStaring at the same four wallsWaiting for the working day to endThen I get home so wasted, worn outI curse at you and tell youHow Ive done the work of ten to fifteen menHow Ive struggled for my moneySweated blood to get us by, yeahWell Im tired of it honeyThink Im gonna have to leave here for a whileAll you hear are hard luck storiesAnd the ways I look at lifeAnd the way I think the world treats meAnd the way that I treat my wifeI never seem to look at youAnd see that somewhere underneathA pair of tired eyes are crying outWell you know I work hard all day longLet me kiss you once with meaningJust to kill this nagging doubtWell you dont deny I do you proudAnd you expect me to be tiredYou say theres no future in our livesWhile I persist Im putting out the fireAll you hear are hard luck storiesJust a few well chosen words`cause youre still the woman of a working manYouve got the heart of a working girl
