Close
Your eyes
And rest your tired body next to mine
Nobody knows more than you
These hard times that we're living through
But, baby, we'll go on and on
Hey, Lord knows we got each other
So kiss me
Kiss me hard and long
Hard times, we can get over, yeahh
Now the sun, yeah, it must rise
And she coming with a bag of tricks
And cheats and dirty lies
Nobody smiles, nobody cries
And no one seems to care if they live or die
But baby, we'll go on and on
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord knows
We have got each other, yeah
So come on and kiss me
Kiss me hard and long
Ooh, hard times, we can get over
Those ballots and boxes
Bullets and guns, yeah
And the outlaw, the outlaw always runs and runs
Yeah, he does
But, baby, just you come, come to me
Come to me, come to me, come to me, baby
When-, whenever you need me
So kiss me hard
Lay some kisses on me, baby
'Cause I need you and you know that
These hard times, we can get over
