We Sure Got Hard Times

歌詞

Got a song to sing you, and it's no excuse I've got a song to sing you, and it's no excuse And it sure is the devil, I b'lieve he's got a-loose You want a drink of liquor, you think it's awful nice When you want a drink of liquor and you think it's awful nice You put your hand in your pocket and you ain't got the price You heard about a job, now you is on your way You heard about a job, now you is on your way Twenty mens out for the same job, all in the same old day Hard times, hard times, we got hard times now Hard times, hard times, we've sure got hard times now Just think and think about it, we've got hard times now You started in moochin', but your mooching's in vain You started in to moochin', but your mooching's in vain Be careful with yourself, you'll get a ball and chain Lard and bacon goin' to a dollar a pound Well, lard and bacon goin' to a dollar a pound Cotton has started to sellin', but it keeps goin' down and down Just before election, you was talkin' how you was going to vote Just before election, you was talkin' how you was going to vote And after election was over, your head down like a billy goat Hard time, hard time, sure got hard time now Hard time, hard time, we've got hard time now Once you think and think about it, we've sure got hard times now
