"Hard Knocks" lyrics

Some kids born with a silver spoon
I guess that I was born a little too soon

Hard knocks
All I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share (Hard knocks)

Some kids born rich as a king
But I was born without a doggone thing but

Hard knocks
All I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share (Hard knocks)

I walked a million miles, I bet
Tired and hungry and cold and wet
Heard that lonesome whistle blow
From New York City down to Mexico

Some kids born fancy-free
Nobody never gave nothing to me but

Hard knocks
All I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share (Hard knocks)

I walked a million miles, I bet
Tired and hungry and cold and wet
I've heard that lonesome whistle blow
New York City down to Mexico

Some kids born fancy-free
Nobody never gave nothing to me

But hard knocks
All I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share (Hard knocks)

I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share (Hard knocks)
I said you'd better beware
'Cause I've had my share of hard knocks
