Music Monday – “Lord it’s like a hard candy Christmas/I’m barely getting through tomorrow/But still I won’t let/Sorrow bring me way down”

The phrase “hard candy Christmas” refers to a time in American history when many families who did not have much money could only afford to give penny candy to their children at Christmas…The hard candy metaphor suggests that life can be hard and sweet at the same time.
