Me and my baby was talking
and what she said was true
said: “It seems like times is getting tough
like they was in ‘32

You don’t have no job
our bills is past due
So, now tell me, baby
what are we gonna do?”

Tough times
tough times is here once more
now if you don’t have money, people
you can’t live happy no more.

I had a good job
working many long hours a week
They had a big lay-off
and they got poor me

I’m broke and disgusted
in misery
Can’t find a part-time job
nothing in my house to eat

Tough times
tough times is here once more
now if you don’t have money
you can’t live happy no more

I went down to the grocery store
said, “I’ll get a little more food on time”
The man said, “Wait a minute
see how do we stand?”
Said, “I’m sorry to tell you
you too far behind.”

Tough times
tough times is here once more
now if you don’t have money
you can’t live happy no more
