I was born into this land
And a man named doctor took me by the hand
He said Mama, you’re boy is doing well
Don’t get him tangled up in this old hell

Ya, this world can cast a nasty spell
All the headlines that you read will tell
That your baby’s hittin’ hard roads up ahead
Don’t be a victim to the fears they spread
--
If the mountain that you’re climbing is too steep
Or the waters all around you too deep
Pause and breathe but baby don’t you sleep
The illusion’s much too heavy for you too keep

Chorus:
Yeah, Life gets tough sometimes, there is no doubt
And your body may be bruised from every bout(oooooooo)
I urge you to stay on your path, don’t be subjected to the math
It all adds up to nothing in the end
--
One and one, plus two will equal four
Still they tell you that you’re going to need some more
But I get by on being poor
Or whatever it is they call not needing more

(Harmonica solo)

Now my body’s startin’ to melt from all this heat
And my senses are beginning to deplete
I close my eyes and accept the defeat
But tomorrow I’ll be standin’ on my feet

Chorus:
Yeah, Life gets tough sometimes, there is no doubt
And your body may be bruised from every bout(oooooooo)
I urge you to stay on your path, don’t be subjected to the math
It all adds up to nothing in the end
