Hard Knock Life lyrics
Songwriters: Strouse, Charles; Charnin, Martin
(hard-knock life,
It's a hard-knock life)
(It's a hard-knock life for us!)
It's a hard-knock life for us!
Instead of treated, We get tricked!
Instead of kisses, We get kicked!
It's a hard-knock life!
Got no folks to speak of, so,
It's a hard-knock row we how!
Cotton blankets, Instead of of wool!
Empty Bellies, Instead of of full!
It's a hard-knock life!
Don't if feel like the wind is always howling?
Don't it seem like there's never any light!
Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?
It's easier than puttin' up a fight.
No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy!
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy!
From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink!
Oh, No!
Empty belly life! (Empty belly life!)
Rotten smelly life! (No, No, No, No)
Full of sorrow life! (Full of sorrow life!)
No tomorrow life!
Santa Claus we never see
Santa Claus, what's that, who's he?
No one cares for you, a smidge
When you're in an orphanage!
It's a hard-knock life!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
Instead of treated, We get tricked!
Instead of kisses, We get kicked!
It's a hard-knock life!
Don't if feel like the wind is always howling?
Don't it seem like there's never any light!
Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?
It's easier than puttin' up a fight.
No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy!
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy!
From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink!
Oh, No!
hard-knock life
a hard-knock life
hard-knock life!
No one cares for you, a smidge
When you're in an orphanage!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
Instead of treated, We get tricked!
Instead of kisses, We get kicked!
Got no folks to speak of, so,
It's a hard-knock row we how! Cotton blankets, Instead of of wool!
Empty Bellies, Instead of full!
It's a hard-knock life!
It's a hard-knock life!
It's a hard-knock life!
It's a hard-knock life!
