Hard Knocks


(J. Byers)


(Recorded for the film "Roustabout")





Some kids born with a silver spoon
I guess that I was born a little too soon


* Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share (hard knocks)


Some kids born as rich as a king
But I was born without a doggone thing


* Repeat


** I walked a million miles I bet
Tired and hungry and cold and wet
I've heard that lonesome whistle blow
From New York City down to Mexico
Some kids born fancy free
Nobody never gave nothing to me but


* Repeat


** Repeat


* Repeat
I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share (hard knocks)
I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share of hard knocks
