[00:02.75]My mother told me
[00:10.04]'Fore she passed away
[00:11.49]
[00:14.07]Said son when I'm gone
[00:16.07]
[00:18.25]Don't forget to pray
[00:20.20]'Cause there'll be hard times
[00:22.32]
[00:25.07]Lord those hard times
[00:28.32]Who knows better than I?
[00:33.82]
[00:38.45]Well I soon found out
[00:40.53]
[00:43.03]Just what she meant
[00:44.22]
[00:46.90]When I had to pawn my clothes
[00:48.79]
[00:50.72]Just to pay the rent
[00:52.34]
[00:53.22]Talkin' 'bout hard times
[00:55.73]
[00:57.79]Lord those hard times
[00:59.81]
[01:00.68]Who knows better than I?
[01:09.40]
[01:41.93]I had a woman
[01:44.79]
[01:48.35]Who was always around
[01:50.79]
[01:51.98]But when I lost my money
[01:54.10]
[01:56.10]She put me down
[01:57.97]
[01:58.78]Talkin' 'bout hard times
[02:01.22]
[02:03.46]Hard times
[02:06.84]

[02:13.01]
[02:17.38]Lord, one of these days
[02:23.56]
[02:25.87]There'll be no more sorrow
[02:28.19]
[02:29.94]When I pass away
[02:31.74]
[02:32.68]And no more hard times
[02:35.25]
[02:37.19]No more hard times
[02:40.74]Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I?
