"Hard Times" lyrics

"Hard Times"

It's a house of blue lights
I'm gonna take you tonight

It's the only place to go
When the money is tight

I'm gonna take you in my loving arms
I'm gonna take your breath away

Hard Times, Hard Times
We've been living on hard times
Hard Times, Hard Times
We've been living on hard times

It's a house of blue lights
I'm gonna take you tonight

One of these days
I'm gonna make it alright

I'm gonna rock you in my loving arms
I'm gonna steal your heart away

Hard Times, Hard Times
We've been living on hard times
Work all week, every single day
I work all week, but it hardly pay

Boys on the left
Girls on the right
You ain't gonna need no money tonight
I know a place, where I wanna be
If you don't know where it is
Everybody follow me

So get up
We're getting down tonight
Come on to the house of blue light
So get up
We're getting down tonight
Come on to the house of blue light
So get up

The house of blue lights
Is just a hole in the wall
House of blue lights
Get away from it all

Hard Times, Hard Times
We've been living on hard times
Work all week, every single day
I work all week, but it hardly pay

Boys on the left
Girls on the right
Nobody need no money tonight
I know a place, where I wanna be
If you don't know where it is
Everybody follow me

So get up

We're getting down tonight
Look out for the house of blue light
We're getting down tonight
Come on down to the house of blue light

So get up
