Hard Times

I'm tired of your talkin'

Spillin' lies upon my floor

And the ground that you're walkin'

Don't shake for me no more

The world is so cold

We're tryin' to get by somehow

It's a cruel old world

We get through anyhow

'Cause I've been lost, 'cause I've been pushed

Pulled and turned around

I've been crossed, I've been forced

Torn and broken down

Livin' ain't easy

Hard times

Hard times

Hard Times

You better believe it

I'll be stronger

In hard times

Hard times (yeah)

I was born a poor child, yeah

I was raised by the zoo

My momma ain't caught no breaks

And I, I can't get none too

The world is so cold

Trying to get through somehow

This cruel old world

But I'll get through anyhow

'Cause I've been lost, 'cause I've been pushed

Pulled and turned around

I've been crossed, I've been forced

Torn and broken down

Livin' ain't easy

Hard times

Hard times

Hard times

You better believe it

I'll be stronger

In hard times

Hard times

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Someday, someway, somehow, baby

We'll make it through

Livin' ain't easy

Hard times

Hard times

Hard times

You better believe it

I'll be stronger

In hard times

Hard times
