Iris DeMent - Easy's Gettin' Harder Every Day lyrics

Standing barefoot on a cold wood floor Looking out the window of my back door If it keeps on raining I think the whole damn house is gonna float away The alarm was buzzing at the break of dawn My husband's asking, "Is the coffee on?" And easy's gettin' harder every day I'll drop the baby off at school at nine And bust the lights to get to work on time Where I'll be staring at the clock just waiting to knock off another day When supper's done we'll watch some TV show Of a bunch of folks who've never heard of Idaho Where easy's gettin' harder every day I had a garden but my flowers died There ain't much living here inside Lately, I don't know what I'm holding on to Wished I could run away to Coeur d'Alene Take nothing with me, not even my name 'Cause easy's gettin' harder every day We make love and then we kiss goodnight He rolls over and he's out like a light But I ain't mad about it, we got nothing to talk about anyway The lights are blinking on the radio tower And I lie awake and stare at them for hours and hours 'Cause easy's gettin' harder every day I had a garden but my flowers died There ain't much living here inside And lately, I don't know what I'm holding on to But I'll never make it up to Coeur d'Alene There ain't no chance of me forgetting my name And easy's gettin' harder every day And it feels like easy just keeps on gettin' harder every day
