Hard TimesOld folks say they ain't seen nothin' like itSince the Great Depression back in 29' Men and women trying to scratch out a livin' Standing shoulder to shoulder in the welfare line Hard times ain't got no prejudice And it don't see black or white Healthy and strong, willin' and able We're just holding on in hard times White haired preacher standing in the pulpit Just a waiving his bible preaching end of days Death and destruction raging' across the planet Better pray to your maker that your soul is saved Hard times ain't got no prejudice It ain't standing on any side Faith is strong, willin' and able Keeps ya holdin' on in hard times New born baby clinging to his mama He came into this world just like you and me Might be a doctor or a teacher or pauper Only fate can determine how it supposed to be Hard times ain't got no prejudice Happiness don't have a price It's love that brings us together Keeps us holding on in hard times Keeps us holding on in hard times |
