?Come all you good time people |
| [00:12.63] |
While I've got money to spend |
| [00:16.61] |
Tomorrow might be Monday |
| [00:20.45] |
And I'd neither have a dollar nor a friend |
| [00:24.63] |
Well I've got plenty of money in my pocket |
| [00:29.11] |
My good time friends are around |
| [00:32.73] |
But as soon as my pocketbook is empty |
| [00:37.32] |
Not a friend on this earth can be found |
| [00:41.25] |
I wrote my little woman a letter good people |
| [00:45.77] |
And I told her I was in jail |
| [00:49.86] |
She sent me back an answer |
| [00:54.24] |
Sayin honey I'm a coming go your bail |
| [00:58.13] |
But I'm still walking round |
| [00:59.65] |
This old jail house this evening |
| [01:02.91] |
Forty dollars won't pay my fine |
| [01:06.69] |
Corn whiskey has surrounded my body poor boy |
| [01:11.00] |
And my woman is troubling my mind |
| [01:21.96] |
|
| [01:30.28] |
Lord my daddy told me a pretty good people |
| [01:35.12] |
And my momma she told me more |
| [01:38.75] |
Said son if you don't quit your rowdy ways |
| [01:43.22] |
You'll have trouble at your door |
| [01:46.98] |
If it wasn't for heartaches and trouble good people |
| [01:51.83] |
Lord i would not be here today |
| [01:56.19] |
I will ramble this whole world over |
| [02:00.10] |
At home I cannot stay |
| [02:03.74] |
Give me corn bread |
| [02:05.14] |
On the table when I'm hungry |
| [02:08.63] |
Something tall and cool when I'm dry |
| [02:12.41] |
And a true loving woman to stand by me |
| [02:16.73] |
Sweet heaven when I die |
| [02:27.73] |
|
| [02:37.11] |
Go dig a hole in the meadow good people |
| [02:41.59] |
Make it deep in that cold cold ground |
| [02:45.74] |
Then gather around all you kind friends |
| [02:50.01] |
And see this poor rounder go down |
| [02:53.64] |
And when I'm dead and they buried me |
| [02:58.66] |
With my pale face turned to the sun |
| [03:02.30] |
Will you stand around and moan little woman |
| [03:06.97] |
And think of the way you have done |
| [03:10.86] |
