Times is hard times is tough Nothin's easy it's all rough Not much right so much gone wrong All I can do is play this song You're watchin' the news it all looks bad The worse half hour you ever had What in god's name is goin on? All I can do is play this song You're losin' your job your house and your car Hittin' rock bottom don't feel that far Nothin' good is gonna come along All I can do is play this song Folks are scared from watchin' that news Folks feel bad and they're gettin' the blues My poor stomach it ain't that strong All I can do is play this song Times is tough times is hard Take a pair of scissors to your credit card Circuit City just said so long All I can do is play this song Who's at fault? Who gets the blame? Let's string up Bernie what's his name And ask Alan Greenspan to come along All I can do is play this song They want your gold and they'll pay cash The only silver lining is the price of gas Money's short and the odds are long All I can do is play this song The factory's closed the bank is bust On the money it says "In God We Trust" So pray for all your stocks and bonds All I can do is play this song Out of luck out of hope I'm wonderin' why I even cast that vote I took that sign off of my front lawn All I can do is play this song There's a new man down there in D.C. They say he's gonna help you and me On Tuesday they was bangin' the gong All I did was to play this song Last man in D.C. had 8 years Whole damn country is in arrears Got 2,3,4 wars goin' on All I can do is play this song Times is hard times is tough Guess you folks need some cheerin' up We'll it ain't me babe you got that wrong All I can do is play this song You heard it here I sang it first Don't feel so bad things are gonna get worse Consider yourselves all strung along All I can do is play this song |
