Hard Times
L Hard Times D
Got an old friend he’s younger than me
But he’s wise to the world cause he can see
Hard Time hangin’ around
He said look to the east and look to the west
They took all the jobs and went south I guess
Hard Times hangin’ around
Chorus:
Hard Time hangin’ Hard Times hangin’ Hard Times hangin’ around
He said look to the east and look to the west
They took our jobs and went south I guess
Hard Times hangin’ around
But what you gonna do when your job shuts down
And ain’t nobody got another job around
Hard times hangin’ around
You go to the store you gotta take all your dough
Cause it’s always worth less than it was before
Hard times hangin’ around
Chorus:
Hard times hangin’ hard time hangin’ hard times hangin’ around
When you go to the store you got to take all you’re dough
Cause it’s always worth less than it was before
Hard times hangin’ around
They pump a lot of money keep the banks afloat
And they toss us out of the last life boat
Hard times hangin’ around
They get a parachute made out of gold
And we get the breadline out in the cold
Hard times hangin’ around
Hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ around
They get a parachute made out of gold we get a breadline out in the cold
Hard times hangin’ around
Now there’s millions of people got their hats in their hands
All just victims of the master plan
Hard times hangin’ around
They get the duck and we get the bill
It was like that then and it’s like that still
Hard times hangin’ around
Hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ around
They get the duck and we get the bill it was like that then and it’s like that still
Hard times hangin’ around
Hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ hard times hangin’ around
They get the duck and we get the bill it was like that then and it’s like that still
Hard times hangin’ around
