Jimmy Buffett There's Nothing Soft About Hard Times

Tekst piosenki

Everyday, held a new surprise
I watched the hunger burnin’ in my sisters’ eyes
The pasteboard shack we called a home, would haunt me in my dreams
There’s nothing soft about hard times
Cause there’s nothing soft about hard times

We never knew anything groovy
A dime meant bread, and not a movie
The muscles that control my smile were rarely ever used
Cause there’s nothing soft about hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times

I had to go cause I could see
I wasn’t meant for poverty
The family ties were broken soon
I went off to find the moon

So I sit on a bench in Jackson Square
I drink my wine, and I breathe the midnight air
Tomorrow I’ll just hit the streets and bum another dime
Cause there’s nothing soft about hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times

I had to go cause I could see
I wasn’t meant for poverty
The family ties were broken soon
I went off to find the moon

So I sit on a bench in Jackson Square
I drink my wine, and I breathe the midnight air
Tomorrow I’ll just hit the streets, and bum another dime
Cause there’s nothing soft about hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times
There’s nothing soft about no-no-no-no those hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times
No-no-no those hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times
I’m gonna tell ya about the hard times
There’s nothing soft about hard times
