[Intro]
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm
Woah, yeah
[Refrain]
All my hard times soon be over
All my hard times soon be over, yeah
[Verse 1]
I was born in a two-room shack
The only thing I owned was hangin' on my back
Been in trouble, thrown in jail
Had nobody to go my bail, but now
[Refrain]
All my hard times soon be over
All my hard times, y'all, soon be over, yeah
[Verse 2]
Listen, I've been pushed, I've been shoved
Been put down by the people I love
I've been hurt, I've been scorned
Times I wished I'd never been born, oh
[Refrain]
All my hard times soon be over
Talkin' 'bout all of my, all of my hard times soon be over
[Bridge]
Hey, hey
Hard, hard times
Help, help, help me, somebody
Hard, hard times
Lord, have mercy on me
I blamed the whole world for the shape I was in
I was too blind to see
My worst enemy was under my skin
It was me
[Verse 3]
I was lost but now I'm found
There ain't no way to keep a good man down
You came along and took my hand
Made me feel like a natural man, and now
[Refrain]
All my hard times, pretty soon
Woah, talkin' 'bout all of my, all of my hard times soon be over
[Outro]
I wonder is there anybody here tonight (All my hard times)
Cry when things don't go right? (Soon be over)
You don't have to feel blue (All my hard times)
With a place in the sun for me and you (Soon be over)
One fine mornin' gonna rise and shine (All my hard times)
Sure gonna ease this troubled mind (Soon be over)
Talkin' 'bout all, all of my hard times soon (All my hard times)
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Soon be over)
Woah, gonna soon (All my hard times)
Gonna ease my troubled mind (Soon be over)
You don't have to cry (All my hard times)
