Last saw Bob in '84
Now he's married to the girl next door
He's stampin'out plastic in a factory
His free time it ain't so free...
Al is working in the same ol' bar
He ain't never gone too far
He's got a baby with a platinum look
One little wink that's all it took...
You know that life ain't easy, nobody said it was
You gotta keep on walkin' on
Workin' for a better one
Everybody, everywhere, carry a cross too deep to bear
Vince bought a brand new commodore
He sold the shirt that he once wore
Now he's dealing his cards solitaire
You can't find him anywhere...
They know I play this here guitar
But I don't drive no red sports car
Maybe we don't have much to say
Hope to see 'em before my wedding day...
You know that life ain't easy, nobody said it was
You gotta keep on walkin' on
Workin' for a better one
Everybody, everywhere, carry a cross too deep to bear
Everybody, everywhere, carry a cross too deep to bear
Everybody, everybody, everywhere, carry a cross too deep to bear.
