Hard Times

(álbum: Hindsight 2020, Vol 1: Stairway To Heaven Highway To Hell - 2021)

Old folks say they ain't seen nothing like it
Since the Great Depression back in 29'
Men and women trying to scratch out a living
Standing shoulder to shoulder in the welfare line

Hard times ain't got no prejudice
And it don't see black or white
Healthy and strong, willing and able
We're just holding on in hard times

White haired preacher standing in the pulpit
Just a waiving his bible preaching end of days
Death and destruction raging' across the planet
Better pray to your maker that your soul is saved

Hard times ain't got no prejudice
It ain't standing on any side
Faith is strong, willing and able
Keeps ya holding on in hard times

New born baby clinging to his mama
He came into this world just like you and me
Might be a doctor or a teacher or pauper
Only fate can determine how it supposed to be

Hard times ain't got no prejudice
Happiness don't have a price
It's love that brings us together
Keeps us holding on in hard times
Keeps us holding on in hard times
