Up on the hill
Just hear the night bird lose his mind
Is he mourning for the days
Before the bright sun's eyes went blind?
Can't remember where I've been
When I was searching for a land of green
Wind keeps crying
Oh, the wind keeps crying, yes
Hard times rising
Oh Lord
Down in the dark
I hear the siren call my name
See her standing in the light
Waiting for that long gone train
Can't remember who I was
When I was fighting for that real just cause
Can't remember what I did
But when I done it I just ran and hid
Wind keeps crying
Oh, the wind keeps crying, yes
Hard times rising
So many hard times rising, baby
Oh Lord
Out in the streets
Just hear that rain a-fallin' slow
Keeps on looking for a place
But there ain't no more place to go
Can't remember how it went
But I came back without a goddamn cent
Can't remember why we fought
But I set sail for another port
Rail cars moving
Oh those rails are hummin', baby
Clock keeps running
That clock is running, yeah
Yeah baby, yes the wind
The wind keeps cry, cry, cry, cry, cryin'
Oh lots of hard times
Oh rising
Oh Lord
Dwellin'
Oh everyday
Hard times
Bad times
