Lyrics

When I was young I was free
I thought I could get along
The view was really different for me
I thought I was safe from harm
But now my life has changed
I'm paying my dues
Got to chase away these
Hard Time blues.
Living in hard times
Living in hard times, yeah
Living in hard times
Living in hard times,yeah
I've been living in hard times
In the middle of hard times again
I wish I had a dime for each day somebody let me down
Believing in the promises they made
I thought I was glory bound
But now I realize I was lied to and used
Gotta chase away these hard time blues.
I think I'll be here for awhile
It's kind of difficult to smile
When you're living in hard times
In the middle of hard times
Living in hard times yeah
Once again.
Living in hard times
Living in Hard times yeah
I'm living in hard times
Living in hard times yeah
Living in hard times
Living in hard times yeah
Living in hard times
Living in hard times yeah
I've been living in hard times
In the middle of hard times
Again.
Again.
