Hard Sun - Indio

When I walk beside her

I am the better man

When I look to leave her

I always stagger back again

Once I built an ivory tower

So I could worship from above

And when I climbed down to be set free

She took me in again

There’s a big, a big hard sun

Beatin' on the big people

In the big hard world

When she comes to greet me

She is mercy at my feet

When I stay to pillage her

She just throws it back again

Once I sought an early grave

To find a better land

She just smiled and laughed at me

And took her blues back again

There’s a big, a big hard sun

Beatin' on the big people

In the big hard world
