Hard To Make It Lyrics - Flower Of Avalon - Tracy Grammer

Lonesome stranger, won't you share my bed 

The sidewalk siren at the bus stop said 

Love is a tear in a salty bay and it's 

Hard to make it in this world today 

Love is a river but the river run dry 

The clouds blow bitter in a boneyard sky 

Flesh dries up and it burns away 

And you can't remember where your heart once lay and it's 

Hard to make it in this world today 

Dandy don, he's a velvet hand 

He's my silent partner, he's the inside man 

Holds me shakin' through the shotgun dawn and he 

Keeps me walkin' down this road i'm on 

Keeps me runnin' when he calls my name 

Shines the light but he kills the flame 

Stones me simple when i try to speak 

Bruise my face but he kiss my cheek and it's 

Hard to make it when you get this weak 

One of these mornins, gonna spread my wings 

Like a red-ass robin at the gates of spring 

Rise up singin' on a cyclone wind 

Till the walls of this city come tumblin' in 

Walls of this city come tumblin', rumblin' 

'round my head like an old man stumblin' 

I don't care if the mountains fall 

There's a little blue egg in the middle of this all and it's 

Hard to make it when you feel so small 

Bus pulled up and i climbed inside 

I sat in the window and i waved goodbye 

She stood starin' at the blue machine 

Singin' nobody knows the trouble i've seen 

Nobody cares and nobody knows 

Only weeds remember where your headstone grows and it's 

Dust to ashes and wings to clay and i 

Check my wallet as we pull away, 'cause it's 

Hard to make it in this world today
