No one said this would be easy, No one said life would be sane
I have learned from the scrapes and the bleedin'
My cards are laid, I'm in the game
Been beaten, been bruised
Been knocked down, my shoes
Are thin from so many miles
I'm the trucker, I'm the cook, I hang wire
I'm the footman for this train, always greet you with a smile
Breaking rocks, sometimes it's painful
Breaking rocks, there all the same
Breaking rocks, heavy and strangling
A broken rock, will break the chain
I'm the junkie, I'm a crook, I've hurt and I've took, I'm sorry, I'll do my best to repay
In the dark and lonely one, been passed up by the sun, lost my job, lost my wife…lost my way
Breaking rocks, sometimes it's painful
Breaking rocks, there all the same
Breaking rocks, heavy and strangling
A broken rock, will break the chain
No one said this would be easy, No one said life would be sane
I have learned from the scrapes and the bleedin'
My cards are laid, I'm in the game
Breaking rocks, sometimes it's painful
Breaking rocks, there all the same
Breaking rocks, heavy and strangling
A broken rock, will break the chain
Breaking rocks, will break the chain
Breaking rocks, will break the chain
Breaking rocks, will break the chain
Breaking rocks, will break the chain
