it's a hard knock life
this inner city life
a year younger
than most of my friends
it's been a hard slog life
since way back then
it's a hard knock life
this inner city life
it's been a hard knock life for me
from the start
no-one cares for you
when you have a tender heart
my folks couldn't care less about me
tried to ship me off to another family
it's a hard knock life
this inner city life
no-one gives a damn about you
when your skins not white
it's a hard knock life
this full of sorrow life
and justice ain't justice
unless you are white
it's a hard knock life
this inner city life
older than my years
I came into this life
sliding sideways
this full of sorrow life
this good for nothing life
but all I can say is I did it my way
it's a hard knock life
it's a hard knock life
it's a hard knock life!
*It's the Hard Knock Life from Annie the musical - music by Charles Strouse, lyrics by Martin Charnin. It's the Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem) by Jay Z.
