Poverty - Bobby Bland[00:00:00]

Written by：Pearl Woods[00:00:01]

I'm up every morning with the sun[00:00:10]

I work all day 'til the evening comes[00:00:14]

Blisters and corns all in my hands[00:00:19]

Lord have mercy on a working man[00:00:23]

I guess I'm gonna die just like I'm living in poverty[00:00:27]

My pay goes down and my tax goes up[00:00:35]

I drink my tea from a broken cup[00:00:40]

Between my woman and Uncle Sam[00:00:44]

I can't figure out who's fool I am[00:00:48]

I guess I'm gonna die just like I'm living in poverty[00:00:53]

Oh Lord it's so hard[00:01:01]

Lord but it's fair[00:01:06]

Everybody talk nobody really care[00:01:10]

Lord I can't save a dime can't borrow one cent[00:01:17]

If I pay my bills I can't pay my rent[00:01:23]

The old lady's fussing and the kids are crying[00:01:27]

They won't let me join the welfare line[00:01:31]

I guess I'm gonna die just like I'm living in poverty[00:01:35]

There's a war on poverty[00:01:44]

Oh they say it's going around now[00:01:47]

All that means people yeah[00:01:52]

They're trying hard to keep you down[00:01:56]

Oh oh oh Lord poverty[00:02:00]
