No Hard Times

No Hard Times - Jimmie Rodgers

Written by：Jimmie Rodgers

I got a bale of flour

Lord I got a bucket of lard

I got a bale of flour

Lord I got a bucket of lard

I ain't got no blues

Got chickens in my back yard

Got corn in my crib

Cotton growing in my patch

Got corn in my crib

Cotton growing in my patch

Got that old hen setting

Waiting for that old hen to hatch

Pick that thing boy

Play it brother

Gonna buy all my chilling a brand new pair of shoes

Gonna buy all my chilling a brand new pair of shoes

I'm gonna quit singing these dog gone hard time blues

I'm gonna hitch up my mules take a hoe to my line

Gonna hitch up my mule take a hoe to my line

And I can't be bothered with all these old hard times

I'm gonna build me a shanty lord I'm gonna settle down

I'm gonna build me a shanty lord I'm gonna settle down

Gonna get me a corn fed mama lord and quit running around

I can make more money with my pig and plow

I can make more money with my pig and plow

With my one eyed mule and my good old jersey cow
