It wasn't easy it was hard as hell
You didn't get luck in a wishing well
You never worked so hard had so much pain wouldn't change
for anything
second verse
Learned love from a movie screen
He was tough she was wild at fifteen
Hated school and had no dreams
Wasn't going very far
third verse
then he got religion and she got a job
It's on her back it's in his job
And it costs lots of money money oh
intro four times
fourth verse
Break down nearly every day
Should'a know I couldn't get away
Got lucky with the girl next door
she was lonely and didn't care
fifth verse
She was young she was dark she was fair
Wrapped herself around you with her stare
You'd explode if she touched you there
touched you there touched you there
third verse
repeat to fade
Can you hear me
Can you show me
You're on top of the world tonight
