No Way But The Hard Way

I had a good job
 And a good lovin' woman
 But the world fell apart
 And then I lost her
 I can't bear to lose
 I'll be over to fight
 Can't drink enough whiskey
 To make it all right
 But the tide will turn
 'Cause I have learned
 There ain't no way but the hard way
 Get used to it
 I said, "There ain't no way but the hard way"
 So get used to it
 You say I drink too much
 And that is a problem
 But that's how it goes
 When you hit rock bottom
 Don't need your advice
 Or your helping hand
 'Cause I'm living on the road
 In a rock and roll band
 The time will turn
 And you will learn
 There ain't no way but the hard way
 Get used to it
 I said, "There ain't no way but the hard way"
 So get used to it
 The tide will turn, yes it will (hey, hey)
 I'm gonna roll on (hey, hey)
 I'm gonna stand strong (hey, hey)
 For the long haul (hey, hey)
 It's rock and roll
 ♪
 When the chips are down
 You gotta make your play
 'Cause there ain't no way (but the hard way)
 There ain't no way (but the hard way)
 I said, "There ain't no way" (but the hard way)
 Oh no, there ain't no way
 But the hard way
 There ain't no way but the hard way
 Get used to it, rock and roll
 I said, "There ain't no way but the hard way"
 So get used to it
 There ain't no way but the hard way
 No way but the hard way
 No way but the hard way
 So get used to it
 The tide will turn
