ZZ Top- It's So Hard (lyrics)

When the light comes and you're feelin' down
'Cause your baby's out there somewhere runnin' 'round
Don't start feelin' blue an' feelin' lonely too
It's hard I know when that love ain't true
So if you feel like cryin', go ahead an' cry
A heartbreak will cool as time goes by
And it's so hard, baby, it's so hard to take
You just can't explain but you know it's there
That empty feelin' seems so unfair
What can you do? When it's gone, it's gone
'Cause those lovin' feelings seem to hurt so long
So if you feel like cryin', go ahead an' cry
A heartbreak will cool as time goes by
It's so hard, baby, it's so hard to take
It's so hard baby, it's so hard to take
Well, you work so long every day and night
Tryin' every thing that seems so right
But when a love falls, a heart must break
An' it's so hard, baby, it's so hard to take
So if you feel like cryin', go ahead an' cry
A heartbreak will cool as time goes by
An' it's so hard, baby, it's so hard, baby
It's so hard, baby, an' it's so hard to take
It's gonna hurt you, baby

One of the many reasons "That Little Ol Band From Texas" is greatness defined.

My dad showed me this song in high school when someone broke my heart. Over ten years later now my dad has passed and I come back to this song and cry, I miss you so much dad.

I casually came here yesterday and I'm back today after reading about Dusty's passing. Damn it really is so hard to take. Forever in our thoughts, RIP Dusty Hill.

The best day ever was, they are the best

Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy said this was in his list of top 10 songs of all time. Have to agree, the lyrics hit you so hard that it takes you back to the exact moment in time, or in my case time's.

Apart from being one of his best solos, Billy's vocal performance is amazing.

[@johnrasenas2458]

my favorite song from el loco. a bit different for zz but it has got a great groove. as always Billy tears it up especially for the final solo.

[@necrossandwich]

Thanks for uploading this!

[@antoniodias4718]

the last ZZ Top album of rock, blues-rock, hard-blues,,,,eventually sucess arrived with "sharp dressed man" and "Give me all your lovin'" from "Eliminator" for me although I still love the music it was never the same....

[@johnrasenas2458]

not a typical z z top song but one of my all time favorites. great guitar work here.

[@oiyabastard7275]

Antonio Dias oh that's 70s ZZ Top is the best I love sitting in my garage with the door open with the rain coming down with a nice cigar and tequila and my old ZZ top 70s cassettes

[@kevdogrudi7260]

Man you are so right. Everything changed with Eliminator and was never the same again

[@kevdogrudi7260]

You don't know how right you are. I love everything prior to Eleminator the best

[@-Mike-69]

ZZ has 3 different musical styles. First few albums were like blues/ rock. Then they got into what I like to call party music. Pearl Necklace, party on the patio, cheap sunglasses. Then when Eliminator hit that is their MTV sound. It's OK for the most part. But not really my thing.

[@ericapolk7174]

My late boyfriend and lover Stuart Brice Jones told me when he pulled out the ZZs it was getting real! And it did... Miss you babe --- 43 yrs old passed 11-2015
