Lyrics: Hard Times

When you are winning
When you are winning I'm with you
I'm sun and springing, yeah
Sun and springing's what I do
And I'm your best friend
I'm your best friend, I pretend
Just like a new trend
You know this friendship will soon end

Cause when the hard times are coming
My true colors show
And what I give you is nothing
I say you're on your own
Cause when the hard times are coming
I'm the first to run
So for the hard times
You know you're on your own

You made a bad stroke
You made a bad stroke you should have known
Cause I'm all for smalltalk
If you want smalltalk then pick up the phone
And I'll be your best friend
Well, at least now for a little while
But don't go around the bend
Cause I can only stand you when you smile

Cause when the hard times are coming
My true colors show
And what I give you is nothing
I say you're on your own
Cause when the hard times are coming
I'm the first to run
So for the hard times
You know you're on your own
Just like a sinking stone

A friend in need is a friend indeed
That's what I've been told
But a friend in me lacks that heart of gold
