It's a cold, grey and unforgiving

From the landlord she must fly
Oh she's failed to pay her rent again
It's unreasonable, it's too high

A hard cruel world
It's a cold, grey and unforgiving
Hard cruel world

Inking thoughts of Jenny Grey
By refusing to bring her rental down
She might marry him just to pay

It's a hard cruel world we live in
A hard cruel world
It's a cold, grey and unforgiving
Hard cruel world

It's a hard cruel world we live in
A hard cruel world
It's a cold, grey and unforgiving
Hard cruel world
Old John Dashing Franklin, cutting south
Years with rage of Janet ruined
Rushes to the bank just to save his love
But he's overthrown

Ooh it's a hard cruel world we live in
A hard cruel world
It's a cold, grey and unforgiving
Hard cruel world

It's a hard cruel world we live in
A hard cruel world
It's a cold, grey and unforgiving
Hard cruel world
