Lyrics
Hard Water
Well we?ve got hard water
But we?ve got soft beds
And the floor could be level
But it?s crooked instead
And we live by a river
We never saw for the trees
And we planted a garden
But it?s all full of weeds
Oh we planted a garden
But it?s all full of weeds
And it smells like cilantro
When we hang out the clothes
And we don?t see a rainbow
Till the day that it snows
We can?t blame anybody
For the road that we chose
And I?d tell you I love you
But you already know
Oh I?d tell you I love you
But you already know
And we drink hard water
From these damn plastic cups
And we laugh at misfortune
As we load up the truck
And we load up the sadness
Right along with the love
?Cause we couldn?t imagine
That we might have to move
Move away from hard water
Move away from soft beds
Move away from the crooked floors
To someplace level instead
Move away from the river
We never saw for the trees
Move away from the garden
?Cause it?s all full of weeds
Oh we planted a garden
And it?s all full of weeds
Cast out from the garden
?Cause it?s all full of weeds
