Tough Times - John Brim

Me and my babe was talking

And what she said was true

Said seems like times Is getting tough

Like they was In '32

You don't have no job

Our bill Is past due

Said now tell me baby

What we gonna do

Tough times tough times Is here once more

Now If you don't have no money people

You can't live happy no more

I had a good job

Working many long hours a week

They had a big layoff

And they got poor me

I'm broke and disgusted

In misery

Can't find a part-time job

Nothing In my house to eat

Tough times tough times Is here once more

Now If you don't have no money

You can't live happy no more

I went to the grocery store

Said give me a more little food on time

Man said wait a minute

See how do we stand

Said I'm sorry to tell you

You too far behind

Tough times tough times Is here once more

Now If you don't have any money

You can't live happy no more
