Lyrics Thin Lizzy - Ballad Of A Hard Man

I've been mixed up, cut up
So sit down and shut up
'Cause I'm a hard man

I was hung up, strung out
But I can't take no more junk
Even if you can

It will beat ya
Cheat ya
Deceit ya, defeat ya

No rocker, bopper
Show stealin' teeny bopper
Gonna get a thing from me

No fat, black
Back scratchin' pussy cat
Gonna get her claws on me

Well they got a scheme
To sell you kids
The silver screens and glossy magazines

Better hold back, good times, strung out, hung up
Strong out, picked on, ripped off, kicked out
Spit on, set up, ripped off, locked up, sent down
Maybe you're as hard as I am

Just blow me away
