[verse 1]
come, all you good+time people
well, i’ve got money to spend
tomorrow might need money
and i neither have a dollar nor a friend

[verse 2]
well, when i got plenty of money, good people
well, my friends all gather ’round
as soon as my pocket [?] is empty
now the friend only [?] can be found

[verse 3]
well, my pappy, he taught me a+plenty, good people
well, my mammy taught me more
said, “son, if you don’t quit your rowdy way
you got trouble at your door”

[verse 4]
well, the last time i seen my woman, good people
had a wineglass in her hand
she was drinkin’ her sorrow
with a low+down, sorry man

[verse 5]
well, i wrote my good woman a letter, now, people
i told her i’s in debt
she wrote me back an answer
said, “honey, i’m+a comin’ to go your way”
[verse 6]
all around this old jailhouse, you see me, good people
forty dollars won’t pay my fine
corn whiskey has a round in my body, poor boy
pretty women done troublin’ my mind

[verse 7]
give me cornbread when i’m hungry, now, people
corn whiskey when i’m dry
give me green grass when i’m [?]
sweet heaven when i die

[verse 8]
well, if i had a+listened to my mama, good people
well, i would not have been [?]
but a+drinkin’ and a+shootin’ and a+gamblin’
at home i cannot stay

[verse 9]
and go and dig me a [?], good people
go and dig me a hole in the ground
come gather, all you kind friends
and see this old rounder go down

[verse 10]
well, when i am dead and buried, good people
with my pale face turned to the sun
you can gather ’round, all you women
and think the way you’ve done
