You told me once I was your pride and joy I guess those days are dead and gone You must have took me for some golden boy You didnt know what you were taking on It was a hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case Now all the angles have been played in threes There isnt much that I can say I know you gave your little heart to me I guess I threw the thing away It was a hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case Sometimes the truth is kind of hard to find But dont you worry I can read your mind And you dont have to tell me to my face You put some other joker in my place They dealt us houses full with the queens and kings And now theyre calling out our bluff cause you and me girl we had everything But it just wasnt quite enough Now thats a hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case You say the truth is gonna set me free Like you might throw a dog a bone I know youre thinking that the jokes on me Just take a look at what you re dragging home -- Another hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case It was a hard up case Just another hard up case
