Met a man walking on the side of the road
His name was Joe and his clothes were borrowed
When he spoke all his word had pain
In his eyes and his heart was sorrow
He walked for many miles in the rain
Said hed be walking until tomorrow
His wife took the kids and drove away
With his best friend and moved down to Mexico
He felted hed lost everything
Made a new friend named Johnny Walker
Often (He) cried about his past till Johnny said to him
Sir Times get hard
And Things go wrong
Though you stumble and fall
Dont give up just get up again
You cant complain
bout the heartache and pain
But right there you remain
Till you choose to get up
I met this girl on 42ND street
On her way to work religiously
She looked me in my eyes and said to me
Shes barely able to make ends meet
It broke my heart to have to hear her say
She had three children and one on the way
For her kids she had to be strong
Cause things got rough when their daddy moved on
To proud to ask her family to help her
Cause her father always swore shed be a failure
If it wasnt for her childrens love
She would have given up
3x Times may get hard
And Things may go wrong
Though you stumble and fall
Dont give up just get up again
You cant complain
bout the heartache and pain
When right there youll remain
Till you choose to get up
Times may get hard
And Things may go wrong
Got your self to lean on
Just be strong and hold on
This is your life
Its your time make it right
When they turn out your light
Theres no chance to come back again
