No Way But The Hard Way

I had a good job

And a good lovin' woman

But the world fell apart

And then I lost her

I can't bear to lose

I'll be over to fight

Can't drink enough whiskey

To make it all right

But the tide will turn

Cause I have learned

There ain't no way but the hard way

Get used to it

I said there ain't no way but the hard way

So get used to it

You say I drink too much

And that is a problem

But that's how it goes

When you hit rock bottom

Don't need your advice

Or your helping hand

Cause I'm living on the road

In a rock and roll band

The time will turn

And you will learn

There ain't no way but the hard way

Get used to it

I said there ain't no way but the hard way

So get used to it

The tide will turn (Yes it will) (Hey, hey)

I'm gonna roll on (Hey, hey)

I'm gonna stand strong (Hey, hey)

For the long haul (Hey, hey)

It's rock and roll

When the chips are down

You gotta make your play

'Cause there ain't no way (But the hard way)

There ain't no way (But the hard way)

I said there ain't no way (But the hard way)

Oh no there ain't no way

But the hard way

There ain't no way but the hard way

Get used to it (Rock and roll)

I said there ain't no way but the hard way

So get used to it

There ain't no way but the hard way

No way but the hard way

No way but the hard way

So get used to it

The tide will turn
