I was born on the Junco River where the dragon surely dwells
And Saint George stood with a mighty word and told it well
Hey, babe, it's your birthday - my sweet little one
Six years old and truth be told you're the only one
It's hard, Lord
Lord, it's hard
Everybody in the whole damn place has gotta have a good time
Say Biloxi - it's tough all over
Ah, Houston - you scared me sober
But all around my old hometown I was known as a loner
You know I wasn't lonely, I just liked being alone
It's hard, Lord
Lord, it's hard
It's hard, Lord
Lord, it's hard
Everybody in the whole damn place has gotta have a good time
I was down by the Junco River where the dragon surely dwells
And Saint George stood with a mighty word and told it well
It's hard, Lord
Lord, it's hard
It's hard, Lord
Lord, it's hard
There's one way in and there's one way out and we're gonna have a good time
