Tough - Kurtis Blow (柯蒂斯·布楼)[00:00:00]

Written by：Robert Arthur Ford Jr./James B. Moore/Russell W. Simmons/Lawrence Smith[00:00:00]

I don't want a lot I want just enough[00:00:00]

So why has it got to be so d*mn tough[00:00:03]

Livin' on the uptown side of jive[00:00:14]

Hustlin' a buck to stay alive[00:00:16]

Lookin' for a ten and they give your five[00:00:19]

Well it's tough[00:00:20]

You talk to the boss the boss is gruff[00:00:23]

You ask for a raise and they call your bluff[00:00:25]

You may get some but it's never enough[00:00:27]

Because it's tough[00:00:29]

Strong like a magnum force[00:00:32]

Rough like a new divorce[00:00:34]

Mean like a three time loser[00:00:37]

Bad like an l a cruiser[00:00:39]

Down like a limousine[00:00:41]

Blind like a submarine[00:00:43]

Hard like cold concrete[00:00:45]

Tough that's the rhythm of the beat[00:00:48]

You hit the street and you look for work[00:01:08]

You don't want to be some welfare jerk[00:01:10]

But I wonder how you get to be captain kirk[00:01:12]

It's tough[00:01:15]

Now kirk has a ship called the enterprise[00:01:17]

He cuts the aliens down to size[00:01:19]

But I wonder[00:01:21]

What he'd do with the uptown guys[00:01:22]

They're tough[00:01:24]

Tough[00:01:26]

Try to get some cash[00:01:27]

When you're looking for[00:01:28]

A raise and they give you[00:01:29]

Trash[00:01:30]

Rough[00:01:30]

When you got it like that[00:01:31]

And your woman's running[00:01:33]

'Round with a baseball bat[00:01:33]

Hard[00:01:35]

Try to play it cool[00:01:36]

When the girl's all know[00:01:37]

You're an out of work fool[00:01:38]

Tough[00:01:39]

How it seems to be wish[00:01:40]

I had somebody lookin'[00:01:42]

Out for me[00:01:43]

Try to find a lover if you dare[00:02:38]

Even if you do she just won't care[00:02:40]

Well no one ever said that that life is fair[00:02:42]

Because it's tough[00:02:44]

Saw a fine young lady the other day[00:02:47]

I started my rap I had a lot to say[00:02:49]

But she said she was goin' with a[00:02:51]

C P A[00:02:53]

Now it's tough[00:02:53]

Strong like a superhero[00:02:56]

Rough like a bank book zero[00:02:58]

Mean like the oakland raiders[00:03:01]

Bad like the caped crusaders[00:03:03]

Down like a homerun ball[00:03:05]

Blind like an umpire's call[00:03:07]

Hard like a cruel deceit[00:03:09]

Tough that's the rhythm of the beat[00:03:12]

You worked all year to buy a brand new car[00:03:32]

A coupe de ville or a jaguar[00:03:34]

But you didn't make enough for a good cigar[00:03:36]

Because it's tough[00:03:38]

So you went to the bank to try to get[00:03:41]

A loan[00:03:43]

But the guy behind the desk had a heart os[00:03:43]

Stone[00:03:45]

He said you don't need[00:03:45]

A car use the telephone[00:03:46]

It's tough[00:03:47]

Tough[00:03:50]

It's a way of life lost your job[00:03:51]

Your money but not your wife[00:03:53]

Rough[00:03:54]

Gettin' in the black uncle[00:03:55]

Sam's in your pocket[00:03:57]

And your woman's on your back[00:03:57]

Hard[00:03:59]

That's the deal had to get a loan just to[00:04:00]

Buy a meal[00:04:02]

Tough[00:04:04]

That's how it goes[00:04:04]

When it's gettin' better nobody knows[00:04:06]

Strong like chocolate thunder[00:04:26]

Rough like stevie wonder[00:04:28]

Mean like brucie the shark[00:04:30]

Bad like the raider's ark[00:04:33]

Down like sugar's glove[00:04:35]

Blind like a man in love[00:04:37]

Hard like a big defeat[00:04:39]

Tough that's the rhythm of the beat[00:04:42]

Tough that's the word unemployment[00:05:56]

Is all I heard[00:05:59]

Rough when you start your day[00:06:01]

Watch the finance man tow[00:06:03]

Your car away[00:06:03]

Hard to hold a job[00:06:05]

When you've been replaced by a[00:06:07]

Little blue knob[00:06:08]

Tough like a dollar steak[00:06:10]

Ain't someone ever gonna give me[00:06:12]

A break[00:06:13]
