Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you wanna go
And leave your man
Go on
I'll understand
But then the night gets dark
All is still
Pray for me
I know you will
[Verse 2]
Hard row to hoe
All by yourself
[Verse 3]
We hit the city
It swallow you whole
You got no friend, darlin'
To satisfy your soul
And then the sidewalk ends
Lights all red
You say to yourself
You're better off dead
[Verse 4]
Hard row to hoe
All by yourself
[Verse 5]
Walk out on me
Walk out on him
You need no man
To do you in
But if the night gets dark
All is still
I pray for you
You know I will
[Verse 6]
Hard row to to hoe
All by yourself
[Verse 7]
All by yourself
All by yourself
All by yourself
