| Well she used to get in most weekends and she hardly had to try
|
| And she still goes out in those fishnets but they’ve sure seen better times
|
| And she didn’t have to work that much cause her looks will get her by
|
| But she’s got a kid now who she loves, so she’s working day and night
|
| She can’t quit so she gets ill
|
| An on his call as she meets him
|
| She feels like sometimes she can’t win
|
| In these hard times
|
| Ooh you know we’ve got hard times
|
| And ooh you know we’ve got real love, real love
|
| Hoping it’ll be enough for these hard times
|
| Well he went to university and he could have had it all
|
| Was the first one in the family, didn’t work in overalls
|
| Well he met her on student night, it was just a one night stand
|
| But he knows he’s got to do the right thing, be the better man
|
| He tries to make the morning last
|
| He’s living in his overdraft
|
| The days and weeks and months go by too fast
|
| In these hard times
|
| Ooh you know you’ve got hard times
|
| And ooh you know we’ve got real love, real love
|
| Hoping it’ll be enough for these hard times
|
| They used to be much better off but they fell on harder times
|
| An if she’s got him and he’s got her, then they’re gonna be alright
|
| Cause real love, real love
|
| Hoping it’ll be enough for these hard times
|
| And ooh you know we’ve got hard times
|
| And ooh you know we’ve got real love, real love
|
| Hoping it’ll be enough for these hard times |
