Lyrics
The factory shut its doors, took all the jobs in town
The bank foreclosed on my grand daddy's farm
The bank man nailed the notice to the porch right near the swing
Now you've left me too, I can barley feel the sting
And there's nothing left behind
And I see that I'm blind
I've toed every line
Well I've see the signs
I've paid for all my crimes
And I've seen, yes I've seen
Some Hard Times
It's hard when the moon through the window, falls gently on our bed
It's been two months since you've gone, needed to go home to get ahead
The whiskeys always calling, one more shot it always says
And you've come running back, and we can put our ghosts to rest
And there's nothing left behind
And I see that I'm blind
I've toed every line
Well I've see the signs
I've paid for all my crimes
It's one more rope that binds
And I've seen, yes I've seen
Some Hard Times
I stare at the road to the house, as the crops sway in the breeze
I know your not coming home, still brings me to my knees
You took my ring and swore to God, but I guess that love was on loan
One more cross to bear, Lord, I guess I'll have to make it on my own
Well I've see the signs
I've paid for all my crimes
It's one more rope that binds
And I've seen
Yes, I've seen
Some Hard Times
