Chorus:
Things are tough all over and I'm losin' badly
I wish you were still here and I said it sadly
But if you wanna come back 'cause you need a shoulder
Things are tough all over.

Guess I should count my blessings for the life I still have
In a world of misfortune that can happen so fast
Life size dominoes, one falls after another
Things are tough all over.

Baby, if you needed me
I'd of heard by now
Well, I hope you're not turnin'
On the other side of town
'Cause things are tough all over.

Well, baby, if you needed me
I'd of heard by now
Well, I hope you're not hurtin'
On the other side of town.

Chorus:
Things are tough all over and I'm losin' badly
I wish you were still here and I said it sadly
But if you wanna come back 'cause you need a shoulder
Things are tough all over.

Things are tough all over.
Things are though.
Tough.
Things are tough.
Yeah, things are tough...
