It was one of "those" days and someone had to write about it!

Hard Time Blues
©2006 James Odle, Jr. / Jody Dickey

It's been one of those days
I got these working man blues
They just won't go away
I need this day to be through
gonna grab my pay and tell ya
what this working man is gonna do…..

I'm gonna grab myself some ice cold brews
And try to drown some of them hard time blues
If the morning brings bad luck
And I wake up alone in my truck
There'll be just one thing for me to do......
Crawl on back, to those hard time blues

(musical break)

That boss man works me like a hound
He's always on my back
Everyday until bear-thirty
But I keep on go'in back
He's always give'n me a hard time
But come payday……I'll be fine

(repeat chorus)

Crawl on back to them hard time blues
