Big Ugly Dog - Livin' Ain't Easy

Feel like I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
Waiting on the muzzle flash and much too scared to run
Each day is tougher than the one that came before
Every time I look outside the wolf is at the door

It ain't easy
No livin' ain't easy living this way
Livin' ain't easy
When it feels like everything is just slipping away

Our belts are pulled so tight it's getting hard to breath
Debt keeps piling up and there ain't no sign of relief
Paul's become insistent and Peter's out of cash
I'm heading to the poor house but I can't afford the gas

It ain't easy
No livin' ain't easy living this way
Livin' ain't easy
When it feels like everything is just slipping away

Tax men, bill collectors, mortgage companies
Have all got their hands in my pocket more than me
Wall Street gets bailed out and corporate greed prevails
While we're standing on the breadline cause we're not too big to fail

Unemployment lines are getting longer every day
While those of us with jobs are overworked and underpaid
They say it's getting better the worst of it has passed
Try selling that to anyone who's fallen through the cracks

It ain't easy
No livin' ain't easy living this way
Livin' ain't easy
When it feels like everything is just slipping away
Livin' ain't easy
No livin' ain't easy living this way
Livin' ain't easy
When it feels like everything is
Heading right down the drain
They take it all away and never have to explain
Get back up on your feet
And then get knocked down again
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
