  • Come you ladies and you gentlemen, a-listen to my song
    Sing it to you right, but you might think it’s wrong
    Just a little glimpse of a story I’ll tell
    ’Bout an East Coast city that you all know well
    It’s hard times
    From the country, living’ down in New York town
    Old New York City is a friendly old town
    From Washington Heights to Harlem on down
    There’s a-mighty many people all milling’ all around
    They’ll kick you when you’re up and knock you when you’re down
    It’s hard times
    From the country, living’ down in New York town
    Well, the weekend is strong and the rich and the poor
    Get there together in roof an' no more
    Crowdin' up 'bove and crowdin' down below
    And someone disappears, you never even know
    And it's hard times from the country, livin' down in New York town
    It’s a mighty long ways from the Golden Gate
    To Rockefeller Plaza ’n’ the Empire State
    Mister Empire sets up as high as a bird
    Old Mister Rockefeller never says a word
    It’s hard times from the country
    Living’ down in New York town
    Well, it’s up in the morning’ trying’ to find a job of work
    Stand in one place till your feet begin to hurt
    If you got a lot o’ money you can make yourself merry
    If you only got a nickel, it’s the Staten Island Ferry
    And it’s hard times
    From the country, living’ down in New York town
    Mister Hudson come a-sailing down the stream
    And old Mister Minuet paid for his dream
    Bought your city on a one-way track
    ’F I had my way I’d sell it right back
    And it’s hard times
    From the country, living’ down in New York town
    I’ll take all the smog in Cal-i-for-ne-ay
    ’N’ every bit of dust in the Oklahoma plains
    ’N’ the dirt in the caves of the Rocky Mountain mines
    It’s all much cleaner than the New York kind
    And it’s hard times
    In the country, living’ down in New York town
    So all you newsy people, spread the news around
    You can listen to m’ story, listen to m’ song
    You can step on my name, you can try ’n’ get me beat
    When I leave New York, I’ll be standing’ on my feet
    And it’s hard times
    From the country, living’ down in New York town
