I had a good job and a good lovin' woman But the world fell apart and then I lost them Now I can't pay the loans or the overdue fines Can't drink enough whiskey to make it alright
But the tide will turn Cause I have learned
There ain't no way but the hard way get used to it I said there ain't no way but the hard way so get used to it
You say I drink too much and that it's a problem But that's how it goes when you hit rock bottom Don't need your advice or your helping hand Cause I'm living on the road in a rock'n'roll band
The time will turn And you will learn
There ain't no way but the hard way get used to it I said there ain't no way but the hard way So get used to it
The tide will turn yes it will I'm gonna roll on I'm gonna stand strong For the long haul Its rock'n'roll
When the chips are down You gotta make your play
Cause there ain't no way But the hard way There ain't no way But the hard way I said there ain't no way But the hard way Oh no there ain't no way But the hard way
There ain't no way but the hard way Get used to it I said there ain't no way but the hard way So get used to it There ain't no way but the hard way No way but the hard way No way but the hard way so get used to it The tide will turn
