And it's a hard life For a man with no wife Babe, it's a hard life God makes you live But without it Don't doubt it You don't even have Your tears to give I wake up and I'm fine With my dreamings still on my mind But it don't take long, you see For the demons to come and visit me And I've got my problems Sometimes love don't solve them And I end each day In a song And it's a hard life For a man with no wife Lord, it's a hard life God makes you live But without it Baby, don't doubt it You don't even have Your tears to give I know I'm a hard man To live with sometimes Maybe it ain't in me To make you a happy wife of mine Maybe you'll kill me Honey I don't blame you If I was in your place Maybe that's what I would do But I ain't breathing, let me breathe Let me go, let me leave I don't know, but I might lose I might bum, might blow a fuse So let me go Lay it down On my own Let me drown Let me go Go where you don't know
I was really into Bonnie Price Billy when I was just out of high school. I got really into Bob Dylan and Tom Waits and other story song writers, and he fits that bill so easily. Now that I'm in my 30's and divorced with kids and living a vagabond lifestyle in order to make my bills and pay child support and still have food to eat at the end of the day, I'm revisiting songs like this with a whole new appreciation for what this man has to offer
I feel you man .. turn your life to Jesus .. he will make you live your life the way it supposed to. .. I'm not telling you to become a pastor...but he will take you to the right direction!!!
I still remember that that spring evening filled with water balloons. finger painting, dancing and of coarse BPB. My tears and soul have dried, miss you B.
Love this song !!!
Been tryna remember/find this song for 10 years. So good to finally hear it again!
Best album ever made
And it's a hard life
For a man with no wife
Babe, it's a hard life
God makes you live
But without it
Don't doubt it
You don't even have
Your tears to give
I wake up and I'm fine
With my dreamings still on my mind
But it don't take long, you see
For the demons to come and visit me
And I've got my problems
Sometimes love don't solve them
And I end each day
In a song
And it's a hard life
For a man with no wife
Lord, it's a hard life
God makes you live
But without it
Baby, don't doubt it
You don't even have
Your tears to give
I know I'm a hard man
To live with sometimes
Maybe it ain't in me
To make you a happy wife of mine
Maybe you'll kill me
Honey I don't blame you
If I was in your place
Maybe that's what I would do
But I ain't breathing, let me breathe
Let me go, let me leave
I don't know, but I might lose
I might bum, might blow a fuse
So let me go
Lay it down
On my own
Let me drown
Let me go
Go where you don't know

Dude.... This is the exact reason I came directly to this song and saw your comment. Bonnie has helped me with all my life's problems.

Master and Everyone ist eines der besten Alben der Welt
The howling is my favorite part

Who sings backing vocals on this? Can’t find anywhere
Marty Slayton. Don't know who she is but am thankful for her performance on this album!
Is it really a hard life for a man with no life? I'd figure its a harder life for a man with a wife
