Hard Times |
I ain’t got a nickle to call mine |
The goverment has made me pay my tax on time |
The’ve takin' all my bread |
And left me here for Dead |
I ain’t even got a lousy dime |
Who the hell wants money |
When there ain’t none to be had |
It don’t make the good times better |
It don’t make the bad times bad |
Well you find out who your friends are |
When you ain’t got a dime |
Just trying to make the best of these hard times |
I’ve got 15 cars and I can’t afford the gas |
We’ve got a horse, but how long can she last |
My managers enraged |
My banker stands there days |
Funny how the money goes so fast |
We are broke but we’ve been broke before |
But being broke don’t scare us anymore |
My daddy’s broke and grandpa too |
But I’m still here to sing for you |
We are going to make it thru for sure… |
Well you find out who your friends are |
When you ain’t got a dime |
Just trying to make the best of these hard times |
