lyrics
Ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard?
Ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard?
Ain’t it hard when you love somebody who don’t love you?
Tell me baby, what a man to do?
Some folk say, watch out for yourself
Some say, have a drink, it’s good for your health
Some say, you got to go out, and use someone else
Ain’t it a mean old world to live in by yourself?
Some folk say, gotta go down the railroad track
Some say, you gotta move on, don’t never turn back
Well I see, I see my 2:19 train, comin’ smokin’ black
And I don’t know whether to take a step forward or take one back
(let’s take a walk now)
Well you never miss your water till your well run dry
Well you never miss your water till your well run dry
Well I never missed that woman till the day she made me cry
And I’m gonna love her, till the day I die
Oh brothers, won’t you listen to me?
Oh brothers, won’t you listen to me?
I’m as down, down, as a downbound man can be
If you think you love a woman, you better let her be
Ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard?
Ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard?
Ain’t it hard, when you love, somebody who don’t love you?
Tell me baby, what a man to do?
House of the Black GardeniaNewcastle Upon Tyne, UK
Viper jazz, dirty blues and infectious swing rhythms more potent than a bathtub full of bootleg gin. Born of the desire to
get their city's dancefloors swinging to the lesser-known roots music of the 1920s and '30s, House of the Black Gardenia brings together the new generation of Newcastle's jazz, blues and swing scene for a raucous revival of old-fashioned good times....more
