Lyrics with chords

C Oh, the times are hard and the G7 wages low,

C leave her, F bullies, C leave her;

I guess it's time for G7 us to go,

it's C time for G7 us to C leave her.

Oh, don't you hear our G7 old man say,

C leave her, F bullies, C leave her;

tomorrow you will G7 get your pay,

it's C time for G7 us to C leave her.
