lyrics

Harder Days by Barry Oreck
I walked the dog I washed the car I watched the game
Read the paper, mowed the lawn about the same
And I wonder what will become of me, Livin in this economy
I see harder days comin down the road, Harder days comin down the road

I once had dreams I once had schemes I had some fun
Grabbed my share of cool clear air, I gave it a run
But it doesn’t pay to think too much, I’ll just get my ticket punched
I see harder days comin down the road, Yes I see harder days comin down the road

Don’t throw out the camera without developing the film
The good old days aren’t so far away but the next groups comin’ in
We once made promises about the world we’d leave our kids
But now I’m glad I won’t be here cause that’s not what we did

We played our hand, we scraped the land, we overdrew
We ate what’s good, we took what we could, we drank the brew,
The bill comes due with interest high, I’ll wish you luck and say goodbye
I see harder days comin down the road, Harder days comin down the road

No second chances, you just live once
Can’t stop the world from spinning round or water where it runs
It’s been a good life, and I knew it couldn’t last
Let’s hope the future is more forgiving than the past

They say buy more, I say “what store?” I do my share
But I burn my waste in the fireplace, not like I don’t care
But now I see its it don’t help a bit, To burn my way through useless shit
I see harder days comin down the road,
yes, I see harder days comin down the road, whoa, harder
Gonna be harder, comin’ down the road
