Ricky Skaggs - When Life Hits Hard Lyrics

(Mark D. Sanders - Steve Seskin)

Life is a mountain of a journey
With rivers to cross at every turn
It's always something or too much of nothing
But if there's one thing I've learned.

When life hits hard you gotta hit a little harder bear that heavy load
It's all gonna get a lot better farther along the road
Lord, knows when you're down so down you gotta dig a little deeper
Keep reaching for the sky
And when life hits hard there's bound to be a reason why.

Everyone's searching for the answer
When maybe thie only thing to do
Is cherish the good times and hold on through the bad times
Trustin' that time will deliver you.

And when life hits hard you gotta hit a little harder bear that heavy load
It's all gonna get a lot better farther along the road
Lord, knows when you're down so down you gotta dig a little deeper
Keep reaching for the sky
And when life hits hard there's bound to be a reason why.

In this one way we're all alike
We share a strong will to survive.

And when life hits hard
you gotta hit a little harder bear that heavy load
It's all gonna get a lot better farther along the road
Lord, knows when you're down so down you gotta dig a little deeper
Keep reaching for the sky
And when life hits hard there's bound to be a reason why.

And when life hits hard there's bound to be a reason why.
When life hits hard...
