Intro :
S tandin' barefoot on a c old wood floor l ooki n' out the window of my back door
If it keeps on rainin' I t hink the whole damn house is g onna float away
The alarm was buzzin' at the break of dawn my h usband's askin' "Is the coffee on?"
And eas y's gettin' harder every day
I'll d rop the baby off at school at nine and bust the lights to get to wo rk on time
Where I 'll be st arin' at the clock w aiti n' t o knock off anot her day
Supper's done we'll watch some TV show of a bu nch of f olks who've never heard of Ida ho
Whe re e asy' s gettin' harder every day
I had a ga rden but my flow ers died ther e ain't much livin' here i nside
Lately I don't know what I'm hold-in' o n to
Wish ed I cou ld r un away to Coeur d'Alene take not hing wit h me not even my na me
'Cau se e asy' s gettin' harder every day
W e make love and then we kiss goodnight he rolls over and he's ou t like a light
But I ai n't mad about it we got nothing to talk a-bout a nyway
The lights are blinkin' on the r adio tower and I l ie awake and stare at them for hour s and hou rs
For e asy's gettin' harder every d ay
I had a ga rden but my flower s died ther e ain't much livin' here i nside
Lately I don't know what I'm hold-in' o n to
B ut I 'll neve r make it up to Coeur d'Alene th ere ain' t no chance of me forgetting my name
An d eas y's gettin' harder every day
And it f eels lik e e asy just keep s on get tin' harder every day
