During hard and difficult times
We count our pennies, nickels and dimes
We are often forced to cut back
So that we do not have to lack
Sometimes we are barely able
To put adequate food on the table
We shop at the second hand store
Just to give our kids a little more
The times when we are in pain
At home we must remain
Without adequate healthcare
Our life will be lived in despair
Although we daily seek
The job market is very bleak
People are losing their homes
To the streets they are sent to roam
Some people have ended their life
Just not deal with all this strife
Many people are really sad
Because things are just so bad
There is much concern
As to when this tide will turn
Although this isn’t the great depression
We are currently facing a major recession
