Times Is Hard

歌詞

Times is hard, times is tough Nothin's easy, it's all rough There's not much right; so much gone wrong All I can do is play this song You're watchin' the news, it all looks bad The worst half-hour you ever had What in God's name is goin' on?

They say he's gonna help you and me They sure know how to bang the gong All I can do is play this song Last man in D.C., he had eight years Now the whole damn country is in arrears We got two, three, four wars goin' on All I can do is play this song Times is hard, times is rough I guess you folks need some cheerin' up Well it ain't me babe. You got that wrong All I can do is play this song You heard it here, I sang it first Don't feel so bad; things are gonna get worse Consider yourselves all strung along All I can do is play this song All I can do is..
