Текст песни It's A Hard Life Wherever You Go - Nanci Griffith
I
am
a
backseat
driver
from
America
They
drive
to
the
left
on
Falls
Road
The
man
at
the
wheel's
name
is
Seamus
We
pass
a
child
on
the
corner
he
knows
And
Seamus
says,"Now,
what
chance
has
that
kid
got?"
And
I
say
from
the
back,"I
don't
know."
He
says,"There's
barbed
wire
at
all
of
these
exits
And
there
ain't
no
place
in
Belfast
for
that
kid
to
go."
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
very
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
wherever
you
go
If
we
poison
our
children
with
hatred
Then,
the
hard
life
is
all
they'll
ever
know
And
there
ain't
no
place
in
(Belfast)
for
these
kids
to
go
(Chicago)
(This
world)
A
cafeteria
line
in
Chicage
The
fat
man
in
front
of
me
Is
calling
black
people
trash
to
his
children
He's
the
only
trash
here
I
see
And
I'm
thinking
this
man
wears
a
white
hood
In
the
night
when
his
children
should
sleep
But,
they
slip
to
their
window
and
they
see
him
And
they
think
that
white
hood's
all
they
need
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
very
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
wherever
you
go
If
we
poison
our
children
with
hatred
Then,
the
hard
life
is
all
they'll
ever
know
And
there
ain't
no
place
in
(Belfast)
for
these
kids
to
go
(Chicago)
(This
world)
I
was
a
child
in
the
sixties
Dreams
could
be
held
through
TV
With
Disney
and
Cronkite
and
Martibn
Luther
Oh,
I
believed,
I
believed,
I
believed
Now,
I
am
a
backstreet
driver
from
America
I
am
not
at
the
wheel
of
control
I
am
guilty,
I
am
war
I
am
the
root
of
all
evil
Lord,
and
I
can't
drive
on
the
left
side
of
the
road
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
It's
a
very
hard
life
It's
a
hard
life
wherever
you
go
If
we
poison
our
children
with
hatred
Then,
the
hard
life
is
all
they'll
ever
know
And
there
ain't
no
place
in
(Belfast)
for
these
kids
to
go
(Chicago)
(This
world)
