Ballad of the Hard Man lyrics

I've been mixed up, cut up

So sit down and shut up

'Cause I'm a hard man

I was hung up, strung out

But I can't take no more junk

Even if you can

It will beat ya, cheat ya

Deceit ya, defeat ya

No rocker, bopper

Show stealin' teeny bopper

Gonna get a thing from him

No fat, black

Back scratchin' pussy cat

Gonna get her claws on him

Well, they got a scheme to sell you kids

The silver screens and glossy magazines

And I'm a hard man

Better hold back, good times

Strung out, hung up

Strong out, picked on

Ripped off, kicked out

Spit on, set up, ripped off

Locked up, sent down

Maybe you're as hard as I am

No rocker, bopper

Show stealin' teeny bopper

Gonna get a thing from me

No fat, black

Back scratchin' pussy cat

Gonna get her claws on me

Just blow me away
