Hard, Ain't It Hard
GThere is a house in this old town,
And tChat's where my true love lays aroDund.
And he taGkes other women right dCown on his knee
And he tGells them a tDale he won't tell Gme.
It's hGard and it's hard, ain't it hCard
To loGve one that never did love yDou?
It's hGard, and it's hard, ain't it hCard, great God,
To lGove one that neDver will be trGue
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
