Paul Brady - Hard Station Lyrics

Hey Mr. Businessman
Please take me as I am
I'm ready to go straight
But it's not easy
When you don't have no money
And if you take a chance
I know you won't be sorry
Hard times all around
Hard Station in the town

She came to me this morning
Came to my brother's place
Cards laid out on the table
Tears streaming down her face

So Mr. Businessman
Please take me as I am
I'm ready to go straight
But it's not easy
When you don't have no money
So listen to me please
I know you won't be sorry
Hard times all around
Hard Station in the town

Round here you get downhearted
It's more than a man can take
Friends making propositions
That was my first mistake

So Mr. Businessman
Please take me as I am
I'm ready to go straight
But it's not easy
When you don't have no money
So listen to me please
I know you won't be sorry
Hard times all around
Hard Station in the town
