The Body, BIG|BRAVE - Hard Times lyrics

And it's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here
It's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here

They raised our wages up half a cent
But our poor hand didn't know what it meant
They raised our wages up half a cent more
But they went up a dime at the company store

And it's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here
It's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here

Old man jones taking up cloth
Won't give you half that you take off
If it lacks one yard of a two cut roll
Won't give you but one to save your soul

And it's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here
It's hard timеs in this old mill
It's hard times in here

Thе card room kids and
The spinning room babies
Can't keep up with the weave shop ladies
Go downstairs to get a drink of water
Along comes the boss says I'll
Dock you a quarter

And it's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here
It's hard times in this old mill
It's hard times in here
