lyrics

40 days adrift at sea
Your business gone to seed
One last chance to succeed
One fateful lottery
Wait by your telephone
Don't step outside your home
You won't know . . . You won't know . . .
You'll want to be alone

It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't that hard to wait and . . .

Your stake is bought and sold
Joints stiff and feeling old
In the office, you were told
And in the parking lot, you got rolled
Livin' is easy when your record's hot
But now they've got you on the spot
You won't know . . . You won't know . . .
You won't get another shot

It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't that hard to wait and see

Sit by the phone and wait for me
Sit by the phone and wait for me
Sit by the phone and wait for me
Sit by the phone and wait for me
