At some point a few years ago I looked around and saw a lot of people in a precarious living situations and this song formed.

Lyrics

To all of my hard luck friends
By Roger Bain 8/27/13

To all of my hard luck friends
Still roaming around
Some of you are still looking for something
Who knows what you found?
For some it’s enough to live day-to-day
To carry on

To all of my hard luck friends
Still stalking the earth
Don’t give up now, don’t ever give in
The world is counting on you
Don’t give up, don’t ever give in
Because of what might have been

To all of my hard luck friends
Buried and gone
Some of you were swallowed alive
And some of you gave in
Mistakes were made and blame was laid
Losing while trying to win

To all of my hard luck friends
May your days be merry and bright
And may the magic finger point the way
Into the shiny night
May the unseen hand of a rock steady band
Make everything alright
