It's hard to be a man
Wear a smile when all around
So many things are wrong
Happy days are yesterdays
Now the dream I used to chase
Have fallen from my eyes
Where am I going?
Where am I drifting to?
With nothing to believe in
When anything would do
Hey, believer, say a prayer
Help me now in my despair
And don't wait too long
Where am I going?
Where am I drifting to?
With nothing to believe in
When anything would do
It's hard to be a man
Wear a smile when all around
So many things are wrong
