Hard Times Lyrics

my boss thinks that im his tool and i guess that he is right
he uses me like this shovel in my hand
but if this shovel was as strong, it wouldnt hold a load of dirt
i guess thats why that im important to that man

chorus:
hard times, hard times
knockin, knockin, knockin
knockin on my door
hard times, hard times
but i dont care very much anymore
hard times, hard times

instrumental

i think id give anything if i didnt have to work
id get so tired that i just cant take a breath
but im smart enough to know that im not so very smart
if i dont work, i guess ill drink myself to death

repeat chorus

instrumental

now while i wind my hours away, thinkin simple deeper thoughts
thirstin for a way to be a great big man
but all my thirstin for these things, i have not learned how to punch
with a drink of water from an old tin can

repeat chorus

instrumental

repeat chorus

hard times
