"Hard Times Comin'" lyrics |
(Jack Wesley Routh)
Life was rough on the lone prairie we didn't have it made
The northern winds brought the cold snow flury and brought us close to the grave
You carried our child through the warm spring haul
And if all went well you'd be a mother come to fall
We had hard times comin' with twisters on the ground
We had tumbleweeds runnin' and they would almost knocked you down
We would hide beneath the storm cellar's door
And without you there I couldn't take it anymore
We had hard times comin' but with your loving we made it alright
[ guitar ]
The river swelled till the flash blood raged washing out the plains
The cottonwood stood with strenght of age and like the trees we remained
It takes the true woman who believes in her man
To stand at his side while he's struggling for his land
We had hard times comin' with sand storms all around
We had prairie hay burnin' our house burned right to the ground
Oh the hardships never did seem to in
But when I'd fall down you'd picked me right back up again
We had hard times comin' but with your loving we made it alright
