Hard Hard Times (Nfld. Trad. music)

Come all ye good people I'll sing you a song
Of husbands and wives and how they get along
To keep them from wanering that is our main goal
So we make 'em happy before they get cold
so it's hard hard times

A we start to age as we get on in years rely more on foreplay and niblin ears Just an old sea dog no longer a pup It takes a bit longer but we still get it up and its hard hard times

The doctor the doctor is tryin to please To lift up the mainmast with uncommon ease he writes a prescription for little blue pills We have a coniption when we see the bill and its hard hard times

But it takes cloes to and hour and something ain't right We're missing the hockey on Saturday night On Saturday night but try as we might We gotta stay with the missus or they'll be a fight and its hard hard times

Go back to the doctor, "what else have you got?" This stuff is real potent but rapid its not" Take home some of this stuff sniff it right up your nose You'll be ready for action before you can get off your clothes and its hard hard times

Now things are happy things are as they should The wife says she's happy, she's knocking on wood She's knockin on wood, and we are like kids We're doin' our business between periods And she likes hard times.

The original words of this is on the DT but the music doesn't sound right.
