Hard Ain't It Hard (Live) Lyrics

Limeliters Hard Ain't It Hard (Live)

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
To love one who never will be true

(Tell 'em all about it, Glennie.)

There is a house in our town.
(Oh, there's one in every town, Glen. Well it says so in the Diner's book,)
That's where my true love sits down
She sits on that other fella's knee
And she tells him what she'd never tell to me

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
To love one who never will be true

(Sing it pretty boy.)

The first time I seen my true love
She came walking by the door.
(No, no, no. Yes she did. No, I want you to sing...
My name Jose Jimenez. I want you to sing it in Russian.)
The last time I seen her false hearted smile
She lay dead on the Kremlin floor

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard (hard, hard, hard)
To love one who never did love you (you, you, you)
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
To love one who never will be true

(Come on, Yuri)
Don't go to drinkin' and gamblin'
(Stop that dancing)
Don't go there your sorrow to drown
Because that hard liquor place
Is a low down disgrace
Young people, the meanest damn place in this town

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard (hard, hard, hard)
To love one who never did love you (you, you, you)
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
To love one who never will be true

Now who's gonna to shoe your little foot
(Abercrombie and Fitch)
Who's gonna to glove your little hand
(Sears-Roebuck)
Who's gonna kiss your lips (Lou)
Oh when we're gone to the promised land

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you (very very difficult)
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
To love one who never will be true

(One more time.)

Oh well, it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you (who never did love you)
It's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard great god
(I'm leaving now. Come back Fidel)
To love one who never will be true
