Hard Times |
| I’m a striver, from up on Striver’s Row |
| And I’m jivin' the very best to know |
| But hard times got things topsy-turvy |
| Oh, Lady Luck is the meanest chick in town |
| I know it 'cause she brought me down |
| Hard times got things topsy-turvy |
| You know, once I had lots and lots of money |
| And I used to dress up so debonair |
| But now I’m on my uppers |
| And tough luck may be, but it won’t get in my hair |
| I’m a striver, from up on Striver’s Row |
| And I’m jivin' the very best to know |
| But hard times got things topsy-turvy |
| (Instrumental break) |
| Aw, Jack |
| I’m sort of beat my chance now, you, so |
| You better hit the road |
| 'cause things are still topsy-turvy |
| Things are gonna be down on the turf now, Jack |
| 'cause things are still topsy-turvy |
| The Great White Way is a little beat |
| But things are still topsy-turvy |
