Long Hard Life

Well, I ain't hurt nobody and ain't nobody hurt me Until the law man finds my house and hangs me from a tree For what I've done Baby, it's a long hard life And all I got to show is 13 acres of property Three dogs, two kids, and one wife Well, who's gonna raise my backer? Who's gonna tend my corn? 'Cause I'll be lyin' in my cell And my wife ain't been the same since the kids were born Baby, it's a long hard life All I got to show is 13 acres of property Three dogs, two kids, and one wife Oh, well, I done the best I could, but I still wound up in jail When I asked my little wife, if she could come and go my bail But she done spent all of my money Now, I'm sitting in this cell, and it's a long hard life Now I'm in this little bitty trailer Tryna make a living off a selling ice But the waters on and the roof don't leak And kids are warm, and the Wi-Fi works just right And all I got to show is 13 acres of property Three dogs, two kids, and one wife Well, I done the best I could, but I still wound up in jail When I asked my little wife, if she would come and go my bail But she done spent all of my money Now I'm sitting in this cell, and it's a long hard life Yeah, when I heard just there ain't no damn jobs You gotta do all that you can Well, you got to make your money Raise your youngins like a man But the hand that used to feed me Just got shut down by the man And it's a long hard life
