Marty Falle - It's Tough lyrics

I used to think I was building us a dream Now each an every day feels like paddling up stream They say "to work is to pray", But Id rather just get paid Its tough. it's tough YTown, aint no Boomtown, this aint 1963 All these factories keep on closing down, And theres nothin left for me. And now you say you have to sell your wedding ring Its tough....it's tough. Bridge: There aint no easy way, Its sweat, blood and faith and the pain goes on Saying I love you, Babe just aint near enough When life gets this rough And I broke every promise to your daddy that day When he said you could be mine Its tough....it's tough 2nd Bridge: Your mama warned you, But still, you believed me, When I said we would go far. But all those seeds seemed to rust out in the weeds of this abandoned steel yard And can you ever forgive me for making life this hard? Its tough....it's tough Honey, I try so hard each and every day I hope and pray, do anything, To make these bills go away And I know livin in Mamas basement is not where you deserve to stay. But its toughIts tough Here I am again, I go and stand in this line With a hundred other guys that see a help wanted sign But anyone can see this is the end of the line. Its toughIts tough. The Heartland is now a wasteland Gone in the gray smoke of this rundown industrial town And the sons and daughters left in its wake I still see the ghosts of our Fathers who worked these mills
