hard times - tk & the holy know-nothings lyrics

[verse 1]
paulie always had it coming
with those swollen dead moon eyes
i was trying to leave when
he pulled me aside
and he said he had some woman
and he’d sell her on the cheap
well, i found him by the river
with a girl that couldn’t speak
and i held him underwater
and he shook himself to sleep
oh, but paulie always had it coming
he just couldn’t keep it clean

[chorus]
oh, hard times
hard times, again
oh, hard times
hard times, again

[verse 2]
holed up in paulie’s bas*m*nt
a couple weeks hung on the line
i was sleeping on the ceiling
with a girl that couldn’t cry
but she’d fill the room with silence
while i sorted out the score
a couple weeks in paulie’s bas*m*nt
with a needle on the floor
and i was high until i was lowered
on down to the cold cement
when i woke, the day had broken
that beating in her chest
[chorus]
oh, hard times
hard times, again
oh, hard times
hard times, again

[verse 3]
i fell down by the river
pale as the dead moonlight
i prayed the lord would take me
in his ever*loving might
or to fill my hands with money
so i could buy that final dose
oh, i hung my head by the river
and i prayed my eyes would close
and i slept until i was sober
and i woke in a pool of sweat
that morning cracked me open
i was raw as a baby’s breath

[chorus]
oh, hard times
hard times, again
oh, hard times
hard times, again
[instrumental break]

[chorus]
oh, hard times
hard times, again
oh, hard times
hard times, again

[outro]
h*llo, hard times, how do you do?
