Good bye, hard life
Don't cry, would you let it ride?
(repeat)

You can see the mornin', but I can see the light
Try, try, try, let it ride
While you've been [bad word]  I've been waitin' half the night
Try, try, try, let it ride
 [bad word] 
And would you cry if I told you that I lied?
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride? 
Good bye, hard life, don?t cry, would you let it ride?

Babe, my life is [bad word]  I never see you smile
Try, try, try, let it ride
Baby you want the forgivin' kind, and that's just not my style
Try, try, try, let it ride
 [bad word] 
I've been doin' things worthwhile, and I?ve been bookin' time
Try, try, try, let it [bad word]  with the crazy crowd, ooh, ain?t no friends o? mine
Try, try, try, let it ride
 [bad word] 
Would you let it ride (x4) [bad word] 
Try, try, try, let it ride (x5)
Just let it ride (x4) [bad word] fade.)
