Born into Bad Times

[Intro]
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)

[Verse 1]
Hard done baby
We born in some real bad times
Everyone says they got heaven
But their truth lies in a hateful eye

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And so I, to save my mind
Bid my heart final farewell
But a faithless heaven brings
A faithful little hell

[Chorus 1]
A little hell, heaven for hell
Something I knew so well
Just to survive in these bad times
In these bad times, into these bad, bad times
So unsatisfied, in these bad times

[Post-Chorus]
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)

[Verse 2]
Johnny Appleseed
Came along in my time of need
“Son, you’ll come to see
Under the orchard tree”

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And there with Stephanie
Walking along silver moon beams
The most beautiful thing
I’d ever seen

[Chorus 2]
A little love, a little love
A little love, love, love
Just to survive, in these bad times
Into these bad, bad times
Love come save me, in these bad times

[Post-Chorus]
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)
(Hard done baby born into bad times)

[Bridge]
May you be a change of sign (in these times)
Oh baby, born into bad times, born into bad times
May you be a change of sign (in these times)
Baby born into bad times, born into bad times

[Outro]
To everyone, I’ve ever loved
To everything, I’ve ever been
Blessed be all under those trees
Born out of bad times
