Hard Times

Alright, alright, alright, alright

Monday, Monday mornin'
And I'm shakin' off the beer
Workin' has got me jerkin'
Pissed away another year
And they're takin' what I'm makin'
Tryin' to keep myself alive
I'm a loser, huh, I'm a bruiser
I can spend it at twenty-five
C'mon, boys!

Hard times, tryin' to earn a livin'
Hard times, how long can they last
Hard times, blood is what I'm givin'
But all they want is cash

Well, they pay me by the hour
But it's gone in just a flash
Think they own me, no, no, can't control me
For no small amount of cash
I am tension, I am wrenchin'
I am part of a machine
When I check out, there'll be no doubt
I'm the worst they've ever seen

Hard times, tryin' to earn a livin'
Hard times, how long can they last
Hard times, blood is what I'm givin'
But all they want is cash
All they want is cash, yeah!

Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Hard times, tryin' to earn a livin'
Hard times, how long can they last
Hard times, blood is what I'm givin'
But all they want is cash

Hard times
Tryin' to, tryin' to, tryin' to, tryin' to
Hard times
How long, how long, how long, how long, how long
Hard times, blood is what I'm givin'
But all they want is cash, the almighty dollar

All they want is cash
All they want is cash
All they want is cash, yeah

Hey, there, brother, can you spare a dime
Ooh-ow!
