Hard Times Lyrics

Every wind that blows my way
Picks me up easy, I don't carry the weight
And everywhere tossed and turned around
It's back to the middle, halfway in and down

Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line
Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line

I run too fast but I can't keep up
The timing is everything but it's never enough
There's a sleepless night and a candle lit
I shouldn't let'm in but I can't resist it

Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line
Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line

Oh, I've been waitin' on my money
And my hands are broken from the cold
I'm gonna find me a day that's sunny
Because these hard times are all getting old

My dog won't bark, and my rooster won't even crow no more
I've got hard times, and they're comin' for more
Tried to shine my shoes before you cut me loose
I got the in too deep, no way out running blues

Talkin' 'bout hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line
I said hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line

Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line
Hard times, (oh, hard times) hard times
Like a freight train hummin' down the line
