Hard Luck Blues |
Things were gettin' mighty rough in Oklahoma |
And I liked to starve to death in Tennessee |
Someone said there’s lotsa work way down in Georgia |
I thought I’d take me down and see |
Well, I musta been the poorest man in Georgia |
And the taste of food was just a memory |
Standin' in the rain a-lookin' through this window |
And I swear this is what I see |
Well, this bum worse than me was a-takin' money |
And the guy that run the place was on the floor |
Well I knew the thing to do was to take off runnin' |
But I just can’t run no more |
Well, if you think they came and got me, well, you guessed it |
Locked me up, that’s just exactly what they did |
And that bum that killed the man took the money |
Well, I guess he went and hid |
Well, they finally made their mind I didn’t do it |
After 20 years of sittin' in a cell |
Now, if anybody ever mentions Georgia |
I’ma gonna say I’d rather go to- |
Well, they say there’s lotsa work in Louisiana |
So I think I’ll take me down there and see |
But if they’ve got a chain gang in New Orleans |
That’s the last you’ll ever see of me |
