Freddie & The Screamers - Life Is Hard

Album: Death Letter Blues - amzn.to/3nDpdRg , Lyrics: Life ain't easy It's a long, hard, rocky road Well it's dog, dog eat dog
And survival of the fittest so I'm told
No matter how you try
Life is hard and then you die
This old world is a tangle
You can't trust your closest friend
You know the devil wears a blue dress
And she's out to get you in the end
I can't count the tears I cried
Life is hard and then you die
Yeah, it's hard...
Everybody...
Got their own cross to bear
Black or white, rich or poor
You know the blues is everywhere (everywhere)
Just keep reachin' for the sky
Life is hard and then you die

[@DirkjeA]

Beautiful song Don with great lyrics, and so true. Life ain't easy, but it is what you make of it. And life can be hard, but that means there is softness too. And we will all meet our end and die at a certain time. Let's hope that moment is in a far future for all of us here, brothers and sisters in great blues music. And when the time comes, I wish we have the feeling we had a good life, and that we are content at the end the suitcase we leave behind is filled with beautiful memories, loving moments and the satisfaction we were loved and we loved those that surrounded us. But until then, I wish you all a happy life, filled with love and laughter. Have a great Sunday, I love you all.
