Testo Hard Work - Henning Kvitnes
Testo della canzone Hard Work (Henning Kvitnes), tratta dall'album Scandicana
I'm down on the corner watchin' the shoes pass me by
My hand is stretched out to you, brother and sister
But I don't wanna meet your eyes
Don't wanna see your pity
You don't need to see my shame
I said goodbye to my future, goodbye to my past
Goodbye to my family name
And it's hard work, yes, it's hard work
Down here at the end of the line
Yes, it's hard work to spend all your time
Prayin' for nickels and dimes
I won't get cold, I got one good hat
I got one good pair of shoes
I'm a small back-down-at-my-feet
It's all I got left to lose
I thank God for the Salvation Army
Thank God for the brave, warm hearts
Yes, I know I would've been better off
If I thanked them right from the start
But it's hard work, yes, it's hard work
Down here at the end of the line
Yes, it's hard work to spend all your time
Prayin' for nickels and dimes
And I'm prayin' for my winter
And I'm prayin' for early spring
I pray these fallen angels down on the street
One day will be given our wings
I thank you, whatever you give me
Never expected too much
And I'm not really sure if I envy you
You always seem to be in a rush
You're always ten minutes late for your life
And the future's always too far away
And the more you work, the more you earn
The more you have to pay
'Cause it's hard work, yes, it's hard work
Down here at the end of the line
Yes, it's hard work to spend all your time
Prayin' for nickels and dimes
Yes, it's hard work, it's hard work
Down here at the end of the line
Yes, it's hard work to spend all your time
Prayin' for nickels and dimes
I'm standin' on the corner watchin' the shoes pass me by
