Hard Times

Well the trouble that I left breathes new strangers
It’s all about forgiveness no false starts or containers
All I found was a place to hide my
Own selfish living behind the mind’s eye

All I needed was a home to give my only soul to
My heart in the wilderness oh oh she’s so true
Maybe I will find a place for you too
And I will be your guiding light through

Oh the hard times
Yeah them hard times

When the man pulls the trigger on the gun
He has everything he never had at once
And all of a sudden he becomes the powder
Reignin’ like he was a meteor shower

It’s them hard times
It’s them hard times

Trouble left her name on the sidewalk
‘Neath red fingerprints
She was found face down in a ditch
All we could do was have a whole lotta fun
While trouble was subdued we wouldn’t hurt anyone
Some say it was a hit and some people tried
Trouble is a thorn in everyone’s side
Well we watched sun set on a new dawn
Where everything is one

It’s them hard times
It’s them hard times
I don’t need no remindin’ I’ll just keep on tryin’ as we’re rollin’ through these hard times
