Hard Course Life Poem by Leslie Neiwert

I'm sittin' out here on a sunny day
When everythings goin' just fine
But when I look around,
People are stirrn'
And I know it's not my time.

But it's a hard course life
And it's not so plain
By the look in your eye
It's all the same
The world is revolvin',
But my head keeps spinnin'
Oh, it's a hard course life
And it's not so plain.

Time goes by and people keep watchin'
I don't know what they're waitin' for
But they're waitin' for somethin'
Somethin' small or somethin' huge
All I know is they're waitin' for somethin'
Somethin' new.

But it's a hard course life
And it's not so plain
By the look in your eye
It's all the same
The world is revolvin'
But my head keeps spinnin'
Oh, it's a hard course life
And it's not so plain.
