Tough People Do

(album: Never Enough - 2023)

This ain't our first time to the rodeo, baby
This ain't our first drive down this road
Seems like the whole damn world's gone crazy
Maybe it's best we just take it slow
Feels like you could use a little more me
I could sure use a little more you
If you're asking me, that's all we need
For getting by and getting through

Lay down your head
Here on my chest
Go on and cry if you want to
I know things look bad
But I'm telling you
Tough times don't last
Tough people do

I hear 'em say that they don't make 'em like they used to
Oh, but, baby, they ain't never met us
You know that we got something worth holding on to
It don't age, it don't fade, it don't rust
When them bad days roll in like thunder
It ain't too long before they're gone again
Yeah, you ain't ever gotta wonder
If I'll be right here 'til the end

Lay down your head
Here on my chest
Go on and cry if you want to
I know things look bad
But I'm telling you
Tough times don't last
Tough people do

Bad times don't last forever
But as long as we're together
You can

Lay down your head
Here on my chest
Go on and cry if you want to
I know things look bad
But I'm telling you
Tough times don't last
Tough people do

Tough people do
Yeah
Tough people do
