Hard time here and everywhere we go
Times is harder than it been before

And people are driftin' from door to door
Can't find no heaven, I don't care where they go

If I ever get off of these killin' floors
I'll never get down there's no, no more
No never get down, this floor no more

Let me tell you people, just before I go
These hard times will kill you, try so long

You say I had money, yeah you better be sure
'Cause these hard times will drive you from door to door

Sing this song ain't gonna say no more
Sing this song ain't gonna say no more

Hard times drive me door to door
Hard times, door to door
