Welfare Blues |
| You know I’m goin' to the welfare |
| Ask them can they help me some? |
| You know I’m goin' to the welfare |
| Lord, Lord, Lord |
| Ask them can they help me some? |
| This ninety day strike been so long |
| It 'bout to get the best a-me |
| Lord, my wife and my children |
| Lord, they cry both night and day |
| Lord, my wife and my children |
| Lord, they cry both night and day |
| This doggone strike soon gonna end |
| I don’t see how I can last much longer |
| You know it’s been ninety days |
| Ninety days, ninety days |
| People and I sure don’t see no end |
| It’s been ninety days, already |
| It’s been ninety days, been ninety days |
| Are over and I sure don’t see no end |
| My wife and my baby, my baby |
| Lord, they grieve, cry over me |
| Lord have mercy |
| Daddy, what in the world you gonna do? |
