hildegard knef - from here on it got rough lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i came to the world on a cold winter’s day
sneezed three times, it must have been hay
my father was livid, he wanted a son
i took a look around and said to the nun

[refrain]
“from here on, it gets rough”

[verse 2]
at first, i found i had little to do
they allowed me to grow a room with a view
but after a while, they hit on a plan
it’s time to start learning, the trouble began

[refrain]
from here on, it got rough

[verse 3]
at fifteen, i had a dream, which i found very clever
i wanted to act, mama said, “no, never”
my father said, “out”, i was already gone
and followed the call, the show must go on

[refrain]
from here on, it got rough
[verse 4]
my talents were spotted, producers were proud
and gave me those parts where you stand in the crowd
when the star became ill, i stepped in like a shot
and someone from film signed me up on the spot

[refrain]
from here on, it got rough

[verse 5]
i played all the good parts and sometimes the bad
and sometimes a fig leaf was all that i had
and then hollywood said it would certainly die
if i didn’t come soon, so i went, “aye+yi+yi”

[refrain]
from here on, it got rough

[verse 6]
but now i was famous, i’d made it at last
and happily back to the scene of my past
i received a big prize, had my name in who’s who
but after a flop, that name was taboo

[refrain]
from here on, it got rough
[verse 7]
at first, i was hurt, i thought it was wrong
then somebody heard me singing a song
i told him i couldn’t, but he said, “yes, you can”
so that’s how this latest torment began
a change was overdue

[refrain]
from here, it’s rough on you
