kurtis blow - tough كلمات الأغنية

intro:
i don’t want a lot i want just enough
so why has it got to be so d-mn tough

livin’ on the uptown side of jive
hustlin’ a buck to stay alive
lookin’ for a ten and they give your five
well it’s tough
you talk to the boss the boss is gruff
you ask for a raise and they call your bluff
you may get some but it’s never enough
because it’s tough

strong:like a magnum force
rough:like a new divorce
mean:like a three-time loser
bad:like an l.a. cruiser
down:like a limousine
blind:like a submarine
hard:like cold concrete
tough:that’s the rhythm of the beat

you hit the street and you look for work
you don’t want to be some welfare jerk
but i wonder how you get to be captain kirk
it’s tough
now kirk has a ship called the enterprise
he cuts the aliens down to size
but i wonder what he’d do with the uptown guys
they’re tough

tough:
try to get some cash
when you’re looking for a raise and they give you trash

rough:
when you got it like that
and your woman’s running ’round with a baseball bat

hard:
try to play it cool when the girl’s all know you’re an out of work fool

tough:
how it seems to be,wish i had somebody lookin’ out for me

try to find a lover if you dare
even if you do she just won’t care
well no one ever said that that life is fair
because it’s tough
saw a fine young lady the other day
i started my rap,i had a lot to say
but she said she was goin’ with a c.p.a.
now it’s tough

strong:like a superhero
rough:like a bank book zero
mean:like the oakland raiders
bad:like the caped crusaders
down:like a homerun ball
blind:like an umpire’s call
hard:like a cruel deceit
tough:that’s the rhythm of the beat

you worked all year to buy a brand new car
a coupe de ville or a jaguar
but you didn’t make enough for a good cigar
because it’s tough
so you went to the bank to try to get a loan
but the guy behind the desk had a heart os stone
he said “you don’t need a car,use the telephone!”
it’s tough

tough:
it’s a way of life,lost your job
your money,but not your wife

rough:
gettin’ in the black,uncle sam’s in your pocket
and your woman’s on your back

hard:
that’s the deal,had to get a loan just to buy a meal

tough:
that’s how it goes,when it’s gettin’ better,n-body knows

strong:like chocolate thunder
rough:like stevie wonder
mean:like brucie the shark
bad:like the raider’s ark
down:like sugar’s glove
blind:like a man in love
hard:like a big defeat
tough:that’s the rhythm of the beat

tough:that’s the word,unemployment is all i heard
rough:when you start your day,watch the finance man tow your car away
hard:to hold a job when you’ve been replaced by a little blue kn-b
tough:like a dollar steak,ain’t someone ever gonna give me a break

tough.
