lyrics

The first time I saw you
Third shift had just begun
The sky grows dark
And it’s over run

All I had was in my pockets
All of the leaves were new
You weren’t stopping
Just passing through

Those hard times
Those hard times
Come knocking at your door
I won’t let nothing
No, nothing
Worry you no more

Smart money’s on Donnie
He had the legs to run
His eyes grow dark
And he’s overcome

When you passed me by I became your lonely one
My body started breaking
It’s still not done

Those hard times
Those hard times
Come knocking at your door
I won’t let nothing
No, nothing
Worry you no more

We lie
Just by trying

Annie always told me
Love has no wings to fly
It leaves you broken
Just passing by

So get the kids and do the laundry
Try not to split in two
Kid there’s not much more
That you can do

Those hard times
Those hard times
Come knocking at your door
I won’t let nothing
No, nothing
Worry you no more
