long john baldry - it still ain't easy lyrics

Loading...

i remember not so very long ago
we were on our way to the blues saloon in old st. paul
it was a particularly hot summer’s day
cruising along that prairie highway
my driver said “i’m feeling rough”, i said “well then, that’s enough”
and we decided to have a stop along the way

that was fine and dandy, a hotel would be handy
with a bar where we could wash our thirst away
our adventure began in a town called esteban
where the rednecks are rowdy night and day
my crew looked so d+mn frazzled, and the townsfolk were dazzled
and my band thought it safer on stage

it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy but i’ve toughened up along the way
(toughened up along the way)
it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy, but now i know i like it that way

well we booked ourselves in, was not the hotel mandarin
and had decor by maquis de halloween
in the twinkling of a star we all went straight way to the bar
and the bartender suggested we sit in
but when the liquor was exhausted, and to avoid being accosted
we hit the stage and let our tunes begin
we rocked those redneck loonies and their little barroom floozies
with our low down delta blues
i sang “taking care of business” and “can i get a witness”
and it ain’t n0body’s business what i do
’cause whenever i arrive, be it a palace or a dive
i just tune them for the rhythm ‘n blues

it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy but i’ve toughened up along the way
(toughened up along the way)
it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy, but now i know i like it that way

it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
it still ain’t easy but i’ve toughened up along the way
(toughened up along the way)
it still ain’t easy (it ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy (still ain’t easy)
still ain’t easy, but now i know i like it that way

you know, it’s been twenty years since i first sang “it ain’t easy”
and through countless gigs from then till now, i can truly say
it still ain’t easy! but there’s a difference, oh yes!
now i know, i like it that way!
