The Weavers

The Weavers were an American folk music quartet based in the Greenwich Village area of New York City. They sang traditional folk songs from around the world, as well as blues, gospel music, children's songs, labor songs, and American ballads, and sold millions of records at the height of their popularity. Their hard-driving string-band style inspired the commercial "folk boom" that followed them in the 1950s and 1960s, including such performing groups as The Kingston Trio and Peter, Paul, and Mary. more »

Well it'shard and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you?
And it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one who never will be true?

There is a house in this old town
That's where my true love hangs around
He takes other women right down on his knee
And he tells them a little tale he won't tell me

Well it'shard and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you?
And it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one who never will be true?

Well, the first time I seen my true love
He was walkin' by my door
The next time I saw his false hearted smile
He was lying dead and cold on the floor

Well it'shard and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you?
And it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one who never will be true?

Who's gonna kiss your ruby lips
Who's gonna hold you to their breast?
And who will talk your future over
While I'm out ramblin' in the West?

Well it'shard and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you?
And it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one who never will be true?

Don't go to drinkin' and out gamblin'
Don't go there your sorrows to drown
That hard-liquor place is a low-down disgrace
It's the meanest old place in this town

Well it'shard and it's hard, ain't it hard
To love one who never did love you?
And it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one that never will be true?

Yes it's hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, good Lord
To love one who never will be true?
