Hard Time Hannah Lyrics by Phyllis Sinclair

Fence Posts and Stones

2006

She rode through the streets on her two wheeled bike
Bags full of clothes gonna take a ride, To the kids in town
Pass the goods around
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Down to the food bank get some grub
Take it to the old folks, give a hug to those she finds
She’s got a heart so kind
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Hard time Hannah you’ve had it rough
Life on the streets didn’t toughen you up
Hard time Hannah, you won’t be beat
By the dirt and the pain of these cold city streets
Down to the Sally-Ann find a dress
Take it to the school for the girl with less, that lived nеxt door
Her grads at four Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Down to the shеlter got to give a smile, moms and the kids, they’ve been waitin’ a while
But they know she’ll come, with jokes and gum
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Hard time Hannah live here too
You know what its like, what's a girl to do
Help where you can, and give from your cup
You might not win, but you won't give up
Off to the soup kitchen, grab a bite , see if her friends all made it through the night
She hopes they did, ‘specially that kid
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Night is fallin' got to get back home, all is well for those who roam
These city streets
With less to eat than
Oooh, ooohh Hard time Hannah
Hear the words of the preacher man, says she sings with the angel band
She died last night, without a fight
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
Now who’s to say who’s rich or poor, those with nothing can give much more
When hearts are free, drop the scales and see like
Oooh, Oooh, hard-time Hannah
World was a better place with Hard time Hannah
Who will replace Hard-Time Hannah?
