Hard Times
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was shaking from the neck down,
Shaking down to my toes
Wondered if I'd ever feel that cold again
If I'd ever see that snow
Because
People always talking and moving about
People always moving and talking about
Hard/Our times
 I was a little older now but I still need
Everyone I know
Money means a little more and more
Yeah we all need it, at least they tell me so
Because
People always talking and moving about
People always moving and talking about
Hard/Our times
Talking about Our times
Talking about hard times
I think about all the times that have passed and
All the times still to come
Will we ever ever live together again
Or did we ever at all
Because
People always talking and moving about
People always moving and talking about
Hard/Our times
Talking about Our times
Talking about hard times
