And it's a hard life 
For a man with no wife 
Baby, it's a hard life 
God makes you live 
But without it, 
Don't doubt it 
You don't even have 
Your tears to give 
I wake up and 
I'm fine With my dreamings still on my mind 
But it doesn't take long, you see 
For the demons to come and visit me 
And i've got my problems 
Sometimes love doesn't solve them 
And i end each day in a song 
And it's a hard life 
For a man with no wife 
Lord, it's a hard life 
God makes you live 
But without it, 
Baby don't doubt it 
You don't even have 
Your tears to give 
I know i'm a hard man 
To live with sometimes 
Maybe it ain't in me 
To make you a happy wife of mine 
And maybe you'll kill me 
Honey i don't blame you 
If i were in your place, 
Maybe that's what i would do 
But i ain't breathing 
Let me breath 
Let me go 
Let me leave 
I don't know 
But i might lose 
I might bum 
I hate to blow a fuse 
So let me go, 
Lay down On my own 
Let me drown 
Let me go 
Go where you don't know
