My mother told me

Before she passed away

Said son when I'm gone

Don't forget to pray

'Cause there'll be hard times

Hard times, oh~yeah~

Who knows better than I

When I soon found out

Just what she meant

When I had to pawn my clothes

Just to pay my rent

Talkin' 'about hard times

Hard times, oh~yeah~

Who knows better than I

I had a woman

Who's always around

But when I lost my money

She put me down

Talkin' 'bout hard times

You know those,

Who knows better than I

Yeah, no, one of these days

There'll be no more sorrow

When I pass away

And no more hard times

I said no more

Yeah, who knows better than I
