We were brothers just like Kane and Abel
Hard times come and go so we're told!
You took my money, left the pennies on the table
Hard times come and go so we're told!
They are a snake in the grass,
An owl in the trees,
And they'll be swoop down upon you
And bring you down to your knees
I recall these words I was told
Hard times come, Hard times go!
But they're harder then they've ever been before
I don't know if I can take them anymore
We were partners, just like Bonnie and Clyde
Hard times come and go so we're told!
Till I turned around and you were not by my side
Hard times come and go so we're told!
