Hard Times

Lacy J. Dalton


Same old bills on the dresser same old sheets on the bed 
Same old pans in the kitchen the same old day old bread 
Same old sad eyed news man on my same old TV set 
Talking about our big depression but I ain't worried yet 
About hard times, hard times 

Hard times is Betty and Bubba living in a mansion and hating each other lord 
Hard times is a-losing your faith and watching your spirits fall 
Hard times is the children too racking their brains about who loves who 
We ain't got no hard times at all 

Sisters got the same old dollies brothers got the same old trains 
Same old love and laughter playing the same old games 
I know you want to sail the south seas and I want to see Paree 
But as long as there's a bed to lie in there's still a lot of sights to see 

Cause hard times is Betty and Bubba living in a mansion and hating each other lord 
Hard times is a-losing your faith and watching your spirits fall 
Hard times is the children too racking their brains about who loves who 
We ain't got no hard times 
Honey we ain't got no hard times 
We ain't got no hard times at all
