It Don't Come Easy

The Smithereens

It don't come easy, you know it don't come easy

It don't come easy, you know it don't come easy



Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues

And you know it don't come easy

You don't have to shout or leap about

You can even play them easy



Forget about the past and all your sorrows

The future won't last, it will soon by your tomorrow



I don't ask for much, I only want trust

And you know it don't come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time

And you know it just ain't easy



Open up your heart let's come together

Use a little love, and we will make it work out better



Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues

And you know it don't come easy

You don't have to shout or leap about

You can even play them easy



Peace, remember peace is how we make it

Here within your reach if you're big enough to take it



I don't ask for much, I only want trust

And you know it don't come easy

And this love of mine keeps growing all the time

And you know it don't come easy
