It's not easy

It's not easy living on your own

It's not easy

It's not easy living on your own

And it's hard (it's not easy)

And it's hard (it's not easy)

And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

It's not easy living on your own



All of the things that you used to do

If they're done now, well they're done by you

It seems a big failing in a man

To take his girl for granted if he can



And it's hard thing (it's not easy)

And it's hard (it's not easy)

And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

It's not easy livin' on your own



There's no place where you can call home

Got me running like a cat in a thunderstorm

Just a big bed and a telephone

Like the last remnants of a stately home



And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

And it's hard (it's not easy)

Well, it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

It's not easy livin' on your own



And it's hard (it's not easy)

And it's hard (it's not easy)

And it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

It's not easy living on your own



Sit here thinking with your head of fire

Go think the same thing and never tire

Imaginin' the glow of her long clean hair

As she goes to sit on her own high chair



And it's hard thing (it's not easy)

Well, it's a pretty hard thing (it's not easy)

Well, it's hard babe (it's not easy)

It's not easy livin' on your own



It's not easy (a pretty tough thing)

It's not easy (well, life pretty rough)

It's not easy (it's a hard time baby)

It's not easy (it's a hard time baby)

It's not easy (it's a pretty hard life
