tommy cash (us) - truly great american blues lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
each night, i go to work and make me 18 lousy dollars
each day, i spend a 20 dollar bill
the telephone, electric, gas and general utilities
are enough to keep a healthy man ill

[chorus]
i’ve got the truly great american blues
what’s a working man like me gonna do?
my wife and babies need new clothes and shoes
i’ve got the truly great american blues

[verse 2]
the rent is due again this week and my car’s out of petrol
and we’re running low on bread and beans
my landlord’s like a madman when i try to makе excuses
good lord, i can almost hear him scrеam

[chorus]
i’ve got the truly great american blues
what’s a working man like me gonna do?
the landlord says he’s been afflicted too
with these truly great american blues

[interlude]
[verse 3]
the president’s been wondering what’s happening to his country
the people have to give a little more
i wonder how he’d like to live on cornbread, beans and taters
and carry coupons to the grocery store

[chorus]
i’ve got the truly great american blues
what’s a working man like me gonna do?
the president said he will see me through
with these truly great american blues
i’ve got the truly great american blues
what’s a working man like me gonna do?
my wife and babies need new clothes and shoes
at the truly great american blues

[outro chorus]
i’ve got the truly great american blues
what’s a working man like me gonna do?
