HARD UP CASE
|
|
You told me once I was your pride and joy
|
I guess those days are dead and gone
|
You must have took me for some golden boy
|
You didn't know what you were taking on
|
It was a hard up case
|
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
|
Now all the angles have been played in three's
|
There isn't much that I can say
|
I know you gave your little heart to me
|
I guess I threw the thing away
|
It was a hard up case
|
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
|
Sometimes the truth is kind of hard to find
|
But don't you worry I can read your mind
|
And you don't have to tell me to my face
|
You put some other joker in my place
|
|
They dealt us houses full with the queens and kings
|
And now they're calling out our bluff
|
'Cause you and me girl we had everything
|
But it just wasn't quite enough
|
Now that's a hard up case
|
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
|
You say the truth is gonna set me free
|
Like you might throw a dog a bone
|
I know you're thinking that the joke's on me
|
Just take a look at what you 're dragging home --
|
Another hard up case
|
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
It was a hard up case
|
Just another hard up case
|
