When I was just a young boy
My daddy came to me
Said, 'Son out in this world there's a lotta things
That'll make you feel like your supposed to be'

You don't have to read the good book
To be a good man just the same
And forget about the money
Money ain't brought nothing to your daddy but pain

It ain't easy
It ain't easy
But you'll be alright

Now it's 15 years later
Now I'm out on the road
And it's been 4 years to day he died
And they won't even play us on the radio

And I think I've found my way alright
Without him here to catch me now and again
I just keep on moving along, keeping my mind on my song
And trying to figure out love

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy
But I'll be alright

Any other fool
Any other fool would throw this away
Any other fool, yeah

I wanna take a minute to thank you
For all the things that you done
Yeah, you gave me a light in the dark of night
When there was no place to hide, no where to run

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy, is it, baby'
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy

But we'll be alright, alright
Be alright, uh huh
Oh, it will be alright
It will be alright
Oh, it will be alright
It will be alright
(Easy)
