1922 Blues |
| Well I worked all summer couldn’t save a cent |
| I gave all my money to the government |
| I don’t know quite how it got spent |
| but the banks are coming for my deed though |
| Man at the mill can’t see though |
| Let me get my feed for free though |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
| I cut out down a braver road |
| I traded my stock for a V84 |
| Danced for town down on the floor boards |
| And the title owed down to me though |
| That gasoline ain’t free through |
| Just guzzling out my knee bone? |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
| Well i met me a woman down in saint paul |
| with a little money and a little pole |
| Bloke told me that he’d bust my jaw |
| I talked to his sister again though |
| Don’t mean I couldn’t win though |
| There’s blood running down my chin now |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
| Well I slept all night on the bar room floor |
| and woke up this morning my head was sore |
| Pockets empty but I want some more |
| The bar man’s got my car though |
| Tales worth more by far though |
| As I leave her down at the bar now |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
| Well I hitched me a ride on the way back home |
| I got me a job on a family farm |
| Times are hard here but I can’t roll? |
| and I ain’t got nothing more |
| Oh that company store |
| Gold’s looking good for sure though |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
| Well I worked all summer counldn’t save a cent |
| I gave all my money to the government |
| I don’t know quite how it got spent |
| but the banks are coming for my deed though |
| Man at the mill can’t see though |
| Let me get my feed for free though |
| Ain’t that the way it is |
