Elkie Brooks - Hard Times lyrics
[Elkie Brooks - Hard Times lyrics]
My mother told me 'fore she passed away
Said girl, when I'm gone don't forget to pray
'Cause there'll be hard times hard times
Oh yeah, and who knows better than I
Well, I soon found out just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay my rent talkin' about hard times
Hard times
Yeah, yeah, and who knows better than I
I had a man, Lord, who was always around
But when I lost my money and he put me down
Talkin' about hard times you know those hard
Yeah, Lord, who knows better than I
Yeah, Lord, yeah, one of thesе days
There'll be no morе sorrow when I pass away
And no more hard times i said no more hard
Yeah, Lord, who know better, Lord
Better than I
Said girl, when I'm gone don't forget to pray
'Cause there'll be hard times hard times
Oh yeah, and who knows better than I
Well, I soon found out just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay my rent talkin' about hard times
Hard times
Yeah, yeah, and who knows better than I
I had a man, Lord, who was always around
But when I lost my money and he put me down
Talkin' about hard times you know those hard
Yeah, Lord, who knows better than I
Yeah, Lord, yeah, one of thesе days
There'll be no morе sorrow when I pass away
And no more hard times i said no more hard
Yeah, Lord, who know better, Lord
Better than I
