Easy Lessons

Coffee and cigarettes, how you gonna pay your debt
Big dreams fade away, never found the words to say
Up down, sweet and low, buzzing on the radio
Sit back, wait your turn, feel it when your body burns
Who's standing tall, you gotta save yourself
You play with fire, man, you gonna get burned
Who don't fall, you gotta make it count
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
Outside in the rain, pouring down the gutter drain
Night's long, day's slow, situation's getting old
Hard times, heavy weight, work is always out of state
Blindfold me, time to roll, take me where the wind blows
Who's standing tall, you gotta save yourself
You play with fire, man, you gonna get burned
Who don't fall, babe, you gotta make it count
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
Who's standing tall, you gotta save yourself
You play with fire, man, you gonna get burned
We don't fall, babe, you gotta make it count
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
The easy lessons are hardest to learn
Baby, easy lessons are the hardest to learn
