Hard Way To Make An Easy Livin' - Bellamy Brothers

Well, we're driving down the road doing one night stands
In a big old bus with a million fans
Making money for nothing with the boys in the band
With the girls all screaming Lord they don't understand

That its a hard, hard way
A hard, hard way
Its a hard way to make an easy living

Well, the video's playing on CMT
Well I must be rich oh woe is me
I'm sitting here waiting on a royalty check
But I get a funny feeling from the record exec

And its a hard, hard way
A hard, hard way
Its a hard way to make an easy living

Well you can't convince them
That you're working at all
When the hours are short and the women are tall
So you might as well let 'em
Believe that you got it made

Houston to Seattle down to Maryland
And I ain't seen nothin' but a Holliday Inn
Like that old song, "I've Been Everywhere"
They say that half the fun is just getting there

And its a hard, hard way
A hard, hard way
Its a hard way to make an easy living

Well I ain't complaining about the worry and stress
But just ask old Willie about the IRS
Its enough to put a poor boy
On the road again

So if you got a kid that can sing and play guitar
And he wants to be famous
And he wants to be a star
Maybe you can turn his cute little head
Let him be a doctor or a lawyer instead

Cause its a hard, hard way
A hard, hard way
Its a hard way to make an easy living

Well its a hard, hard way
A hard, hard way
Its a hard way to make an easy living

Well its a hard, hard way
Well its a hard way
Lord its a hard, hard way
Ain't it a hard way
