Hard Man to Love Lyrics


The phone call in the middle of the night, it never came
She's been walkin' on pins and needles
Waitin' for the phone to ring
To put her mind at easeThe suns' comin' up and I'm comin' in
With another, "I'm sorry, it won't happen again"
I can't understand why she never ran
When anybody in their right mind wouldYeah, I'm a hard man to love
But thank God she does
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
When, "I'm sorry" just ain't enoughSoft as silk she stands
By her barbed wire man
She's never given up
I'm a hard man to loveThere's a dog house rose that God knows
I didn't send soon enough
Sittin' in the middle of a crippled kitchen table
Barely standing up from where I kicked it onceIt ain't pretty enough to make up for me messin' up
The only love a man could ever need
She shines forgiveness from her patient eyes

I don't see what they see in meYeah, I'm a hard man to love
But thank God she does
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
When, "I'm sorry" just ain't enoughSoft as silk she stands
By her barbed wire man
She's never given up
I'm a hard man to loveBut I found someone tough enough
To love a man like me
In spite of the tears she's cried
And the time she's tried so hard to loveThis hard man to love
But thank God she does
Keep holdin' on, bein' strong
When, "I'm sorry" just ain't enoughSoft as silk she stands
By her barbed wire man
She's never given up
I'm a hard man to love
No she's never given up
On this hard man to love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Country-pop may have ruled the charts, but Kevin Fowler established himself impressively throughout Texas by making modest honky tonk-style country for regular folks. Raised in the West Texas town Amarillo, the guitarist began his musical career on both drums and piano. He left Texas at age 20 for the bright lights of Los Angeles, where he studied music at the Guitar Institute of Technology. He returned to Texas soon after and settled in Austin, where he joined the hard rock band Dangerous Toys. Following this eye-opening stint, Fowler started his own Southern hard rock band, Thunderfoot. He soon came to the realization, however, that he couldn't shake his West Texas roots and gave up hard rock for country, the style of music he grew up with.

Fowler put together a country band in 1998 and began playing Tuesday nights at Babe's on Sixth Street in Austin. Within two years, he'd begun recording albums and struck big with his self-released Beer, Bait and Ammo (2000). The album sold around 30,000 copies in the Texas area and garnered an impressive amount of airplay, particularly for the album's title track. The song became somewhat of a Texas anthem; Mark Chesnutt made the song part of his live show, and Sammy Kershaw recorded it. Fowler returned in 2002 with his third album, High on the Hog, and boasted some impressive guests, including Willie Nelson and David Lee Garza.
