Hard Time Blues (10-25-26) |
My man said he didn’t want me |
I’m getting tired of his dirty ways |
I’m going to see another brown |
I’m packin' my clothes |
I’m leavin' town, getting outdoors |
Lettin' him know and he’ll see a hard time |
Now there’s no need of cryin', just put me off your mind, |
Then you’ll see a hard time |
When your good woman is gone you’ll see a hard time |
(spoken: Don’t say a word, just listen) |
The risin' sun ain’t gonna set in the east no more |
The risin' sun ain’t gonna set in the east no more |
'Cause I’m a good woman I can get a man any place I go You can say what you please, you will miss me There’s a lots-a things you are bound to see, |
When your friends forsake you and your money’s gone |
Then you’ll look around all your clothes is gone |
Down on your knees you’ll ask for me, |
There’s no one else you will want to see |
Then you’ll pray a prayer that men pray ev’rywhere, Lord |
When your good woman is gone |
When your good woman is gone |
