Hard Times Lyrics

When you are winning
When you are winning, I'm with you
I'm sun and springing
Yeah, sun and springing's what I doAnd I'm your best friend
Yeah, I'm your best friend, I pretend
Just like a new trend
You know this friendship will soon end'Cause when the hard times are coming
My true colors show
And what I give you is nothing
I say, you're on your own'Cause when the hard times are coming
I'm the first to run
So for the hard times
You know you're on your ownYou made a bad stroke
You made a bad stroke, you should have known
'Cause I'm all for smalltalk
If you want smalltalk then pick up the phoneAnd I'll be your best friend
Well, at least now for a little while
But don't go around the bend

'Cause I can only stand you when you smile'Cause when the hard times are coming
My true colors show
And what I give you is nothing
I say, you're on your own'Cause when the hard times are coming
I'm the first to run, so for the hard times
You know you're on your own
Just like a sinking stoneA friend in need is a friend indeed
That's what I've been told
But a friend in me lacks that heart of gold'Cause when the hard times are coming
And what I give you is nothing
Yeah, when the hard times are coming
You know you're on your own'Cause when the hard times are coming
My true colors show
And what I give you is nothing
I say, you're on your own'Cause when the hard times are coming
I'm the first to run, so for the hard times
You know you're on your own
Just like a sinking stone
I say, you're on your own
Just like a sinking stone, yeah
