The Kingston Trio Miscellaneous Hard, Ain’t It Hard Hard, Ain’t It Hard The Kingston Trio Words and Music by Woody Guthrie - From their 1958 debut LP "The Kingston Trio" Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard To love one who never did love you Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard Great God To love one who never will be true. Well there is a house in this old town And that’s where my true love lays around And she sits down upon another’s knee (do tell) And tells him what she never will tell me. Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard (oh yes) To love one who never did love you Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard Great God To love one who never will be true. Oh well the first time I seen my true love She was a’standing a’by my door And the last time I seen her false-hearted smile She was dead on that barroom floor. (porter) Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard (oh yes) To love one who never did love you Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard Great God To love one who never will be true. Well who’s gonna kiss your ruby lips? Who’s gonna hold your little hand? And who’s gonna do, well--you know what! When I’m down in that promised land? (hey) Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard (oh yes) To love one who never did love you Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard Great God To love one who never will be true. (pick it) Oh well don’t drinkin?and gamblin’ill be true. (here we go) Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard (oh yes) To love one who never did love you Oh well it’s hard, ain’t it hard, ain’t it hard Great God To love one who never will be true.
