Hard, ain't it hard
First time I seen my true love He was walkin' by my door The last time I saw His false hearted smile Dead on his coolin' board It's hard and it's hard ain't it hard To love one that never did love you Hard and it's hard ain't it hard, great God To love one that never will be true There is a house in this old town That's where my true love lays around Takes other women right down on his knee Tells them a tale that he won't tell me * Refrain Don't go to drinkin' and to gambling Don't go there your sorrows to down This hard-liquor place is a low-down disgrace The meanest damn place in this town * Refrain
