Hard times are here
And everywhere you go
Times are harder than
They ever been before

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm

You know, people are driftin'
From door to door
But they can't find no heaven
I don't care where they go

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm

People, if I ever can get up off
This hard killin' floor
Lord, I won't get down
Down this low no more

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm

Well, you hear me singin' this old
Old lonesome song
People, you know these hard times
Can't last us so long

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm

Hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
