I let BIB do all the heavy lifting on this one. I just mixed up a couple of patches and did some vocal. I wrote it as a rock and roll song but it morphed into a country kind of jam.

Hard Times
It's a hard time to be a workin man these days
You're working longer hours for shorter pay
You got to keep on pushin, with just a little luck
You'll pay your bills, have some fun and save a couple bucks
Well it's a hard time to be a workin man these days

It's a hard time to to be a workin girl these days
You can work ten years and never see a raise
Then the boss she wants to see you and you know its nothing good
You'd like to tell her where to shove it if you only could
Hard times for a workin man
Hard times for a workin man

Monday morning oh no its just can't be
Monday morning you're not a frend to me
Hey Friday evening won't you rescue me

Hard Times

So mothers tell your newborn kids so they will understand
They got to find a dream and hold it close
And ride it till the end
Working for a living ain't all it used to be
To make it in this world you need creativity
Hard times for a working man
Hard times for a workin man

It's a hard time to be a workin man these days
Working longer hours for shorter pay
You got to keep on pushin, with just a little luck
You wont end up livin in your pick up truck
It's a hard time to be a workin man
It''s a hard time to be a workin man
It's a hard time to be a workin man

It needs more cowbell!
