but they can’t find no heaven
i don’t care where they go

off a-this old hard killin’ flo’

well, you hear me singin’
this old lonesome song
people, you know these hard times
can’t last us so long

hm, hm-hm

hm, hm-hm
hm, hm-hm, oh lord

you know, you’ll say you had money
you better be sho’
but these hard times gon’ kill you
just drive a lonely soul

um, hm-hm
umm, hmm
umm, hm-hm
hm, hm-hm-hm

(guitar)

umm-hm
hmm-hm-hm
umm-hm
hm-hm-hm
hmm, hm-hm-hm

(guitar to end)
