Hard Times of Old England - The Copper Family[00:00:00]

Come all brother tradesmen that travel alone [00:00:00]

O pray come and tell me[00:00:06]

Where the trade is all gone [00:00:09]

Long time I have travelled and cannot find none [00:00:11]

And it's O the hard times of old England [00:00:17]

In old England very hard times [00:00:22]

Provisions you buy at the shop it is true [00:00:28]

But if you've no money[00:00:34]

There's none there for you [00:00:36]

So what's a poor man and his family to do [00:00:40]

And it's O the hard times of old England [00:00:44]

In old England very hard times [00:00:50]

If you go to a shop and you ask for a job[00:00:56]

They will answer you[00:01:02]

There with a shake and a nod [00:01:04]

So That's enough to make a poor man[00:01:08]

To turn out and rob [00:01:11]

And it's O the hard times of old England [00:01:13]

In old England very hard times [00:01:19]

You will see the poor tradesmen[00:01:26]

A-walking the street[00:01:29]

From morning till night for employment to seek [00:01:32]

And scarcely they have any shoes to their feet [00:01:37]

And it's O the hard times of old England [00:01:43]

In old England very hard times [00:01:48]

Our soldiers and sailors have just come from war [00:01:55]

Been fighting for their King and their country sure [00:02:01]

Come home to be starved better[00:02:07]

Have stayed where they were [00:02:10]

And it's O the hard times of old England [00:02:12]

In old England very hard times [00:02:18]

I'm now to conclude and to finish my song[00:02:24]

Let us hope that these hard times[00:02:30]

They will not last long [00:02:33]

And I hope soon to have occasion to alter my song [00:02:37]

And no the good times of old England [00:02:42]

In old England[00:02:49]

Jenny good times[00:02:51]
