Well, I'm down an discouraged an

Worried and I'm bothered, too

Well, I'm down an discouraged an

Worried and I'm bothered, too

An it's all on the account of just the way my baby do



(harmonica & instrumental)



You put the love bug on me, woman

And you made prosperity come

You put the love bug on me, woman

And you made prosperity come

If there's anyone can beat you

I can't see how it can be done



(harmonica & instrumental)



Yes, I bought you shoes

I bought you clothes

I bought you ev'rything, baby

That yo' trunkard hold



That's why

After you do me like you done

When you've got yo' money

Yes, you would not give me none



Yes, I been broke an hungry

Yes, for a-many long days

I been broke and hungry

Yes, for a-many long days

Ever since I stop workin' on that WPA.



(harmonica & instrumental)
