Hard Luck Story Lyrics[Verse 1]
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy, staring at the same four walls
Waiting for the working day to end
Then I get home so wasted, worn out, I curse at you and tell you
How I've done the work of ten to fifteen men

[Pre-Chorus 1]
How I've struggled for my money, sweated blood to get us by, yeah
Well I'm tired of it honey, Think I'm gonna have to leave here for a while

[Chorus 1]
All you hear are hard luck stories
And the ways I look at life
And the way I think the world treats me
And the way that I treat my wife
[Verse 2]
I never seem to look at you, and see that somewhere underneath
A pair of tired eyes are crying out
Well you know I work hard all day long, let me kiss you once with meaning
Just to kill this nagging doubt

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well you don't deny I do you proud
And you expect me to be tired
You say there's no future in our lives
While i persist i'm putting out the fire

[Chorus 2]
All you hear are hard luck stories
Just a few well chosen words
Because you're still the woman of a working man
You've got the heart of a working girl

[Chorus 1]

[Outro]
All you hear are hard luck stories
And the ways I look at life
And the way I think the world treats me
And the way that I treat my wife
