...TIME TOUGH... by Toots and the Maytals ----------------......................... *from ’Funky Kingston’ (1973)* Intro: Verse 1: I go to bed but sleep won’t come Get up in the night I couldn’t fight my feelings. Early in the morning it’s just the same situ-ation Here comes the landlord just a-knocking upon my door. I’ve got four hundred/month rent to pay And I can’t find a job. Let me let me tell you: Chorus 1: Time tough (time tough) Everything is out of sight it’s so hard (so hard so hard so hard). Time tough (time tough) Everything is growing higher and higher (higher and higher). Verse 2: Sister lee cannot bear it And brother Lincoln only stand it now. They’re crying night and day louder and louder Nobody to help them make their way. I’ve got four hundred/month rent to pay And I can’t find a dollar. Let me let me tell you; Chorus 2: Time tough (time tough) Everything is out of sight it’s so hard (so hard so hard so hard). Time hard (time hard) Everything is growing higher and higher (higher and higher). Verse 3: Good times once lead into bad times But now the bad times take over.
