[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Break bread and drink red
Choose lust of the heart over love of the flesh
You're daddy did wrong so you'd do right
But your baby's not sleep beside you tonight
Tonight, such a hard life
Such a hard life, such a hard life
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
Break bread and drink red
Choose lust of the heart over love of the flesh
Your mother works late so you retire
But it's never been you that his heart truly desires
Who his heart truly desires
And it's a hard life, such a hard life
[Instrumental + Solo]
[Bridge]
Here in the house down by the lake
I know I made all my mistakes that I
Mistakes I was born to make
I'm sure that it happens all the time
Your mind is just as black
And I know it is, I know it is
Yeah I know it is, I know it is
It's a hard life
