Times Are Hard

Times are hard, it seems it’s been forever
Times are hard, they won’t stay hard always
Hope will spring eternal for believers
In the possibilities of change
We must do our best
Convinced it will be good enough
Even when the strength to fight will fail
We’re holding on for the good times
Holding on through the bad times
Holding on ‘cause we know
Nothing in this world can beat us
When we’re good
Times are hard, it seems it’s been forever
Times are hard, they won’t stay hard always
If we accept what’s worthless
And work hard to improve
There’ll be no ground for the bigots to gain
