Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Cry tough) Don't you know you're getting older?
(Cry tough) Don't you, don't you know you're getting slower?
[Verse 2]
(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)
[Verse 3]
Cry tough, don't you know you're getting slow?
(Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older
[Verse 4]
(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)
[Verse 5]
(Cry tough) Don't you know you're getting slower?
(Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older
[Verse 6]
(Cry tough) 'Cause you know you're getting slow
(Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older
[Verse 7]
(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)
[Verse 8]
Cry tough, don't you know you're getting slow?
(Cry tough) Oh, yes, you are getting older
[Verse 9]
(How can a man be tough, tougher than the world?)
(How can a man be tough, tougher than the world?)
(Tell me, how can a man be tough, tougher than the world?)
(I want to know, how can a man be tough?)
