The Hard Way Performer(s): The Nashville Teens
Success don't come easy, so they say 'Cause I got mine I got it the hard way, the hard way
When I was five, I had to fight to keep alive There was very little bread to eat Fifteen before I tasted meat
Teacher said that I had inhibitions I was just another case of malnutrition The hard way, ain't that the hard way
She let me live in the spire room 'Cause when it rained The rain came through, through
A song in my heart, a hole in my britches I struck out to find my riches Didn't have no peace to scatter my loot Ain't no bucks in a birthday suit The hard way, ain't that the hard way
Take your courage in your hands Stick to things you understand That's the way that next You will make success out of mess
Now I drive a limousine My shoes are keen, my suit's always clean The hard way I made it the hard way I made it the hard way I made it the hard way I made it the hard way I made it...
