Hard Day

(album: Illusion & Doubt - 2016)

Lord don't be angry
I haven't been the best
I sold you to the devil
For a brand new denim vest
I swear I tried so damn hard
To resist those tempting eyes
But he played me for a fool
For this blasted denim style

He said that I could have her
If I only fell to my knees
So today I bought her flowers
She looked at me displeased

It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running

She looked at me with them pretty eyes
And sat me on the ground
Then she whispered in my ear
And the tears came a'pouring down
She said "I could never love you
You sold away my lord
The devil has your little soul
For that denim vest you can't afford"

It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running
It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running

Those beautiful blue eyes and long blonde hair
They wear down my heart
With a bottle in hand I tilt it back
And found that little hole in the dirt

It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running
It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running
It's been a hard hard day for loving
And it's a hard hard time when you're running
