Civil Liberty Songs
Hard Times
It’s hard times in Washington
Hard times in Tennessee
Hard times for everyone
Hard times for you and me
It’s hard times in the public places
Hard times in the factories
Hard times on the corporate farms
Hard times on the company seas
Hard times
It’s hard times
It’s hard to watch it all go down
Drowning like the setting sun
Hard to watch our freedoms taken
Hard to lose what we had won
It’s hard to watch the towers tumble
Hard to watch the struggling town
Hard to watch the bastards smile
While they tear the Constitution down
Hard times
It’s hard times
But it’s hardly time to take a seat
Hardly time to lose your voice
Hardly fair to just complain
As if we never had a choice
For we are born to work and choose
We are born to rip and mend
We are born to win and lose
We are born to lose and win
Hard times
It’s hard times
Hard times
It’s our time
