Annie Medley (Tribute Version)-Ameritz Tribute Standards

It's the hard-knock life for us It's the hard-knock life for us 'Steada treated, we get tricked 'Steada kisses, we get kicked It's the hard-knock life Got no folks to speak of, so It's the hard-knock row we how Cotton blankets 'steada of wool Empty bellies 'steada of full It's the hard-knock life Don't if feel like the wind is always howlin'? Don't it seem like there's never any light Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in? It's easier than puttin' up a fight No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy No one cares if you grow of if you shrink No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink Oh, empty belly life, rotten smelly life Full of sorrow life, no tomorrow life Santa Claus we never see Santa Claus, what's that? Who's he? No one cares for you a smidge When you're in an orphanage It's the hard-knock life You'll stay up till this dump shines Like the top of the Chrysler Building Yank the whiskers from her chin Jab her with a safety pin Make her drink a Mickey Finn I love you, Miss Hannigan Get to work Strip them beds Scrub that floor Polish my shoes And I mean start now It's the hard-knock life for us It's the hard-knock life for us No one cares for you a smidge When you're in an orphanage It's the hard-knock life It's the hard-knock life It's the hard-knock life It's the hard-knock life
