Barbecue Bob We Sure Got Hard Times
Got a song to sing you : and it's no excuse
And as sure as the devil : I believe he's got a‑loose
[When] you want a drink of liquor : you think it's awful
nice
You put your hand in your pocket : and you ain't got the
price
You hear about a job : now you is on your way
Twenty mens after the same job : all in the same old day
Hard times hard times : we [sure] got hard times now
Just drink and think about it : we got hard times now
You start in mooching : but your mooching been in vain
Be careful with yourself : you'll get a ball and chain
Lord and bacon : gone to a dollar a pound
Cotton have started to selling : but it keeps going down
and down
Just before election : you was talking about how you was
going to vote
And after election was over : your head's down like a
billygoat
