now, got in tough luck
all my people they’re dead an gone
now, got in tough luck
all my people they’re dead an gone
an i haven’t got any money
no place to call my home
when a man gets in tough luck
n-body wants him ’round
when a man gets in tough luck
n-body wants him ’round
if ya haven’t got any money
there is no friend to be found
when a man got alots a-money
he’ll have friends at ev’ry house
when a man got alots a-money
he’ll have friends at ev’ry house
but if he haven’t got any money
he’ll be treated like a cat wit’out a mouse
‘ooh, step on it’
(guitar & harmonica)
‘play that thing, boy, play that’
‘my fever’s a hundred an sixty below zero’
now when i got in tough luck
my pig meat didn’t treat me right
when i got in tough luck
my pig meat didn’t treat me right
but why should i worry about a pig meat?
sleepin’ with an old hog ev’ry night
so, when i get outta this tough luck
i’m goin’ to leave your home
when i get outta this tough luck
i’m goin’ to leave your home
because you treats me mean
you know you done me wrong.
