Hard Bargain

Ron Sexsmith


I'm a bit run down 
But I'm ok 
I just feel like calling it a day 
But you send me back to the start 
You drive a hard bargain 

Each time I'm heading 
For nowhere 
Doomed and determined to go there 
It seems I never get far 
Cos you drive a hard bargain 

How's a guy supposed to fail 
With someone like you around 
I've tried and tried 
To no avail 
You just can't seem to let me down 
You drive a hard bargain 

So I'll keep on playing 
That old song 
Cos for all I know 
It's where I belong 
When the world is breaking my heart 
You drive a hard bargain 

You send me back to the start 
You drive a hard bargain 

I'm a bit run down 
But I'm ok....
