Odetta - Hard, Oh Lord

When I came in to the soul world
I didn't come here to stay
Well I didn't bring nothing into this soul world
And nothing I carry away

Hard ain't it hard
Ain't it hard, oh lord
To love
And to be loved
Hard ain't it hard
Ain't it hard oh lord
To love and to be loved

Look down
At a lonesome road
Just as far as I can see
Well I didn't have nobody
To tell my troubles to
And noone cherish me

Hard oh ain't it hard
Ain't it hard oh lord
To love and to be loved
Oh love in the morning
And it won't be long
Just gonna roll out and go
Well it's gonna carry
Some old barren ground
And it ain't coming back no more
