The Modulations - Rough Out Here lyrics
[The Modulations - Rough Out Here lyrics]
Just killing time (Time)
Watching cars for blocks, in a gas line
(Waiting in a gas line)
People everywhere, it's looking very sad
(Aw) the pressures so great
It's driving people mad
It's rough, so rough
Out here, really, really, rough out here
Yes, it is really, really, rough out here
Rent is getting high (High)
Salaries getting low (Low)
Truckers on strike
'cause the speeds too slow
Paying twice as much, for everything you buy
(Ooh, hoo hoo, ooh, huh)
Inflation's so great
You can't afford to die
It's rough, so rough
Out here, really, really, rough out here
Oh, yes it is really, really, rough out here
Oh
People out of work, can't get a dime
Still, they wonder why there's so much crime
It's getting so rough, we all need to shout
(Do do, do do, do do, do, do)
Make the Lord come down, and help us all out
(Do do, do do, do do, do, do)
It's rough, so rough
Out here, really, really, rough out here
You know it is
Really, really, rough out here
It's getting rougher every day
(Really, really, rough out here)
While people don't have a people don't
Have a decent place to stay
(Really, really, rough out here)
Millions been laid off thier jobs
No one cares
(Really, really, rough out here)
All about this stealing, and killing
And dealing (Really, really, rough out here)
When the pressures on politics, no
(Really, really, rough out here) no
It's really, really rough
It's really really rough
(Really, really, rough out here)
It's really really rough
So rough (Really, really, rough out here)
Can't afford to die can't afford to die
(Really, really, rough out here)
It's really really rough
It's really really rough
(Really, really, rough out here)
It's really really rough
So rough (Really, really, rough out here)
Can't get a dime can't get a dime
Can't get a dime yeah
