hard times

you're always askin' me for money

you think it's growin' on the trees

i don't think that you're so funny

can't you see when a man is on his knees

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

getting harder all the time

you're always leavin' me so lonely

so you can run all over town

i used to be your one and only

but now i see

you would kick me when i'm down

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

getting harder all the time

yes

they are

well

now i've run right out of money

you're telling me this time we're through

you better watch behind you

honey

cause all your trouble's gonna catch right up with you

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

these are hard times

baby

getting harder all the time

these are hard times

baby

getting harder all the time
