Hard Times (Country)

[Verse 1] Hard times, She's up at dawn with the baby cryin' loud, Hard times, Puts on her coat, wears her struggle like a shroud. Hard times, Workin' double shifts, prayin' she'll make it somehow. [Pre-Chorus] Hard times, Bills pile high, and the rent is past due, But she's got dreams she ain’t lettin' slip through. Hard times, [Chorus] Hard times and strong hands, keepin' her alive, Hard times, With her baby's smile, she’s learnin' to survive. Unreliable love, but a fire in her eyes. [Verse 2] Hard Times, He promised the world, but he’s nowhere to be found, Hard times, Left her holdin’ the pieces, standin’ her ground. She’s wearin' the weight, but she won’t let it bring her down. [Pre-Chorus] Every night she prays for a brighter day, But her heart beats strong, and she’ll find her way. [Chorus] Hard times and strong hands, keepin' her alive, Hard times, With her baby's smile, she’s learnin' to survive. Unreliable love, but a fire in her eyes. [Verse 3] Hard times, Through the storm, she’s still holding on. Hard times, Her heart beats strong, even when hope is gone. Hard times, The fire inside her will never fade away. Hard times, She’s learnin’ to live, she’s findin’ her way. [Chorus] Hard times and strong hands, keepin' her alive, Hard times, With her baby's smile, she’s learnin' to survive. Unreliable love, but a fire in her eyes. [Fade] Hard times, Through the storm, she’s still holding on. Hard times, Her heart beats strong, even when hope is gone.
