My mother told me
Before she passed away
Said son When I'm gone
Don't forget to pray
'Cos there'll be hard times
All those hard times
Who knows better than I
I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent
Talkin' 'bout hard times
All those hard times
Who knows better than I
** Tenor Sax Solo **
** Guitar Solo **
I had a woman
Who was always around
But when I lost my money
She put me down
Talkin' 'bout hard time
All those hard, yeah yeah
Who knows better than I
Lord one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
But when I pass away
And no more hard time
No more hard, yeah yeah
Who knows better than I
