Hard Times For An Honest Man Lyrics - John Mellencamp

One man 

Does his work 

He's not satisfied 

Not at all 

Feels like 

That he is being used 

His self respect starts to fall 

His frustration 

Runnin' very very high 

He takes it out 

On the one he loves 

Because it's safe 

And who they gonna tell 

And he hates the cold-bloodedness 

That runs inside

Chorus 

Oh yes 

It's hard times 

For an honest man 

Very very very hard times 

Hard times for an honest man 

Very very very hard times 

 

Sister 

She's got a lot of pride 

You can see it when she walks into the room 

But she's young 

And she's unaware 

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't no man can touch this girl's heart

Chorus 

 

So we walk 

From the front porch to the back yard 

Just to laugh and say hello and say good-bye 

But some days are hard, like a soldier's steel-toed boots 

And the rent we pay to stay here gets high 

 

Chorus
