Hard Times

My mother told me
'Fore she passed away
Said: son when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray

'Cause there'll be hard times
Hard times, ooh yeah
Who knows better than I?

Well I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay my rent

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times, ooh yeah
Who knows better than I?

You were
Alright

(Hard times, ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)

Had a woman
Who was always around
But when I lost my money (ooh)
She put me down

Talkin' 'bout hard times
You know those hard, yeah
Who knows better than I?

Yeah, lord (yeah, lord)
One of these days (one of these all days)
There'll be no more sorrow (no more)
When I pass away (no, no)

And no more hard times (no more hard times)
I said: no more (heah yeah)
Lord, who knows better than I?
