Hard Road lyrics

How long have you been hangin` around

Your eyes fixed to the cement ground

Your heart is warm, your hands are cold

You know the truth, but the story gets old

You stood on the corner for a long time

People passin` by you gave you nickels and dimes

They think you`re one of the nameless

Cuz you got no record and you ain`t famous



Oh, Bill, I know how you`re feelin`

Your heart`s on fire and your head is reelin`

But with the spirit to guide you

And a friend beside you

You know you`ll win

If you`re only willin`



The sun`s so hot and my heart is thumpin`

Let me buy you a beer or somethin`

You`ve been travellin` a hard road

Sit down, Bill, lighten your load

If you need a friend, give me a call

I got your picture on my wall

From one compadre to another

I love you, bill, as I would my brother



Oh, Bill, I know how you`re feelin`

Your heart`s on fire and your head is reelin`

But with the spirit to guide you

And a friend beside you

You know you`ll win

If you`re only willin`



Oh, Bill, I know how you`re feelin`

Your heart`s on fire and your head is reelin`

But with the spirit to guide you

And a friend beside

You you know you`ll win

If you`re only willin`
