Hard Time Blues

Hard Time Blues - Scrapper Blackwell

I'm going down to the river

Just to see the water run

I'm going down to the river

Just to see the water run

And to think about my troubles

And where all my money's gone

Times has got so hard that I cannot find a job

Times has got so hard that I cannot find a job

And every morning the rent man grabs on my doorknob

I'm getting so ragged

I ain't got no decent clothes

I'm getting so ragged

I ain't got no decent clothes

I ain't got nobody ain't got nowhere to go

Now I'm worried

Ain't no telling what I'm going to do

Now I'm worried ain't no

Telling what I'm going to do

My friends don't know me

And I can't get a dime or two

Soon as hard time strike me my baby puts me out

Soon as hard time strike me my baby puts me out

Now guess you know

What these hard time is all about
