W P A Blues - Various Artists[00:00:01]
Everybody's working in this town and it's worrying me night and day[00:00:10]
Everybody's working in this town and it's worrying me night and day[00:00:20]
If that mean working too have to work for the W P A[00:00:29]
Well well the landlord come this morning and he knocked on my door[00:00:39]
He asked me if I was going to pay my rent no more[00:00:45]
He said you have to move if you can't pay[00:00:50]
And then he turned and he walked slowly away[00:00:54]
So I have to try find me some other place to stay[00:00:58]
That housewrecking crew's coming from the W P A[00:01:08]
Well well went to the relief station and I didn't have a cent[00:01:17]
If that's the only way you stand you don't have to pay no rent[00:01:23]
So when I got back home they was tacking a notice on the door[00:01:28]
This house is condemned and you can't live there no more[00:01:32]
So a notion struck me I better be on my way[00:01:37]
They're going to tear my house down ooo that crew from the W P A[00:01:46]
Well well I went out next morning I put a lock on my door[00:01:56]
I thought I would move but I have no place to go[00:02:01]
The real estate people they all done got so[00:02:06]
They don't rent to no relief clients no more[00:02:11]
So I know have to walk the streets night and day[00:02:15]
Because that wrecking crew's coming ooo from that W P A[00:02:25]
Well well a notion struck me I'll try to stay a day or two[00:02:34]
But I soon found out that that wouldn't do[00:02:40]
Early next morning while I was laying in my bed[00:02:45]
I heard a mighty rumbling and the bricks come tumbling down on my head[00:02:49]
So I had to start ducking and dodging and be on my way[00:02:53]
They was tearing my house down on me ooo that crew from that W P A[00:03:03]
