Hardstone City Lyrics

Hardstone City lyrics

In the hardstone city where the dust gets in your eyes

 Pa he's out drinking and there's children crying

 Ma sits by the washing, she don't know what to do

 Looks like this hardstone city's gonna get on top of you

 

 They say in this hardstone city you gotta carry a gun

 Well I ain't gonna carry no shooter for no one

 

 Ain't gonna get me no body's gonna get me down

 

 This hardstone city has me feeling low

 All I hear is wildcats screaming on the radio

 Gonna get my sister gonna hold her near

 Gonna take her right, right out of here

 

 I'm sick and tired of waking up in this town

 All I hear is car horns hooting all day long

 Gonna get me a lady, fall in love with her

 And take her out of this crazy world
