Текст песни Hard Times (No One Knows Better Than I) - Paul Carrack

My mother told me
'Fore she passed away
Said, son when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray

'Cause there'll be hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I?

I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times, oh yeah
Who knows better than I?

Oh, I had a woman
Who was always around
When I lost my money
She put me down

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I?

Yeah, one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
When I pass away

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I?
Yeah, who knows better than I?
