Hard time's is here

An ev'rywhere you go

Times are harder

Than th'ever been befo'

Um, hm-hm

Um-hm

Um, hm-hm

Um, hm-hm-hm

You know that people

They are driftin' from do' to do'

But they can't find no heaven

I don't care where they go

Can't last us so long

But these hard times gon' kill you

Just drive a lonely soul
