John Mellencamp - Hard Times For An Honest Man lyrics

One man does his work He Feels like that he His self respect starts to fall His frustration Runnin On the ones he loves, because it And who they gonna tell And he hates that cold-bloodedness That runs inside Chorus: Oh yes It Very very hard times Hard times, for an honest man Very very hard times Sister, She You can see it when she walks into the room But she And she Of what a brutal world can do to you So she loves a man He lies like a dog Tears her little world all apart So the walls go up For the rest of her days And there ain Girls heart Chorus: Oh yes. It Very very hard times Hard times, for an honest man Very very hard times So we walk From the front porch to the back yard Just to laugh and say hello and Say goodbye But some days are hard, like a Soldier And the rent we pay to stay here Gets high Chorus: Oh yes. It Very very hard times Hard times, for an honest man Very very hard times
