Hard, Ain't It Hard
FThere is a house in this old town,
And tBbhat's where my true love lays aroCund.
And he taFkes other women right dBbown on his knee
And he tFells them a tCale he won't tell Fme.
It's hFard and it's hard, ain't it hBbard
To loFve one that never did love yCou?
It's hFard, and it's hard, ain't it hBbard, great God,
To lFove one that neCver will be trFue
First time I seen my true love
He was walkin' by my door.
The next time I saw his false hearted smile
He was layin' dead and cold on floor.
Don't go to drinkin' or to gamblin',
Don't go there your sorrows to drown.
That hard-liquor place is a low-down disgrace,
It's the meanest old place in this town
