Key: Db major
Verse 1
his bottle of grog
Hard, hard times
He'll try and bite you for
a couple of bob
Hard, hard times
His dream time people run
wild and free
finished and so is he
Hard, hard times
And it's hard times
livin' in the lucky country
Hard, hard times
Black man say, poor fella, my country
Hard, hard times
Poor Jackie's a stranger in his own land
Hard, hard times
Livin' in a world he can't understand
Hard, hard times
Wrecked and drowning
in a sea of grog
G
been robbed
Hard, hard times
And it's hard times livin'
in the lucky country
Hard, hard times
Black man say profella my country,
hard, hard times
Spirits have fled from
the rocks and trees,
hard, hard times
The land is sick from
white man's disease,
hard, hard times
Their lust and greed does them betray,
F
C
G
they rape the land to make it pay
hard, hard times
And it's hard times livin'
in the lucky country,
hard, hard times
Black man say profella my country,
hard, hard times
The black man's dream
time's dead and gone,
hard, hard times
The white man's dream time
marches on,
hard, hard times
C
G
they just don't seem to realize
hard, hard times
And it's hard times
living in the lucky country,
hard, hard times
Black man say profella my country,
hard, hard times
