A song from the point of view of the cowboy. Independent thinking, hard working American. HARD TIMES IN THE COUNTRY Come all you good people wherever you be I'll sing you a song it's a sad tragedy Everybody's grabbing for that pie in the sky And they're cheating each other and I'll tell you why Chorus It's hard times in the country, It's hard times I cry If these times don’t kill me, I’ll live til I die Since cheating has grown to be such a fashion I believe in my soul it'll ruin the whole nation We fought and we died for the 'Land of the Free' Now the 'Home of the Brave' is all ate up with greed Chorus Now there's the politicians in Washington D.C. They've civilized freedom till there ain't nothing free There’s too many rules, and too many laws Bad men in high places, Good men on the dodge. Chorus Big government they’re preachin’ their protection creed They pander big business and all of their greed Globalization , their free trade plan To put the whole world in a few strong hands Chorus Republicrats and Democans it ain't no surprise They got their hands full of gimme, and their mouths full of lies Left wing or right wing I've got this to say They're just two wings of the same bird of prey Chorus Now our backs are against the wall We must take a stand we have no choice at all There's nowhere to run and there's nowhere to hide We must take back our country before America dies Chorus Now this is a warning and I hope you take heed Don’t give up your freedom for security Security’s a myth there ain’t no such thing Tell 'em all to go to hell and let Freedom Ring!
