[00:02.15]It's the hard-knock life for us
[00:05.36]It's the hard-knock life for us
[00:08.53]Steada treated
[00:09.77]We get tricked
[00:11.68]Steada kisses
[00:12.95]We get kicked
[00:14.87]It's the hard-knock life
[00:16.62]
[00:18.09]Got no folks to speak of so
[00:21.38]It's the hard knock row we hoe
[00:24.59]Cotton blankets steada wool
[00:27.84]Empty bellies steada full
[00:31.07]It's the hard-knock life
[00:32.71]
[00:34.69]Don't if feel like the wind is always howling
[00:38.37]Don't it seem like there's never any light
[00:41.46]Once a day don't you wanna throw the towel in
[00:44.89]It's easier than puttin' up a fight
[00:47.95]No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy
[00:51.12]No one cares if you grow or if you shrink
[00:53.79]
[00:54.47]No one cries when your eyes get wet and weepy
[00:57.81]From all the cryin' you would think this place would sink
[01:01.63]Ohhh ohhh
[01:05.27]Empty belly life
[01:08.49]Rotten smelly life
[01:11.70]Full of sorrow life
[01:14.77]No tomorrow life
[01:16.43]Santa Claus we never see
[01:19.88]Santa Claus what's that
[01:21.96]Who's he
[01:23.20]No one cares for you a smidge
[01:26.47]When you're in an orphanage
[01:29.64]It's the hard-knock life
[01:31.31]It's the hard-knock life
[01:34.03]It's the hard-knock life

It's the hard-knock life for us
It's the hard-knock life for us

It's the hard-knock life
Don't if feel like the wind is always howling
Don't it seem like there's never any light
Once a day don't you wanna throw the towel in
It's easier than puttin' up a fight
No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink
No one cries when your eyes get wet and weepy
From all the cryin' you would think this place would sink
Ohhh ohhh
Empty belly life
