Times Has Done Got Hard (口白)

Times Has Done Got Hard - King Solomon Hill/Billy Murray

Knocking that's the rent man

You know it must got tough if he coming here before rent's

Aaaah baby darling we got to move

Aaaah baby darling we got to move

It's something wrong must be no good that mailman is ridin' through

I say that rent man he won't stand no square

I say that rent man he say he ain't goinna stand no square

And I ain't gonna stand none of his foolishness

I'll move before I'll stay here

Time has got so tough I can't pay my rent

And my old brownskin worries me so bad

That I ain't got my real good sense

I done spent my money then I done pawned my clothes

Soon as I told my brownskin 'bout it she kicked my clothes outdoors

These times is tough

Hmmmm I won't be bad no more

Mama don't get mad with me yet you kick my clothes outdoors

Lord I'm blue I won't try that kid no more

I say doggone a woman ain't got no more care than to

Kick my clothes outdoors

Baby these tough times will make you do most anything won't me

I'm goin' sing this song I'm goin' moan for joy

I say goodbye brownskin hello high brown hello boys

But think never need worry I'm going back to Chicago
