Lyrics

Cry tough Don't you know you're getting older? (Cry tough) Don't you, don't you, know you're getting slower? How can a man be tough? Tougher than the world Tougher than the world For if he's rough, he's against the world He's against the world Cry tough Don't you know you're getting slower? (Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older How can a man be tough? Tougher than the world Tougher than the world For if he's rough, he's against the world He's against the world Cry tough Don't you know you're getting slower? (Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older Cry tough 'Cause you know you're getting slower (cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older How can a man be tough? Tougher than the world Tougher than the world For if he's rough, he's against the world He's against the world Cry tough Don't you know you're getting slower? (Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older
