Johnny Winter - Mean Town Blues lyrics

[Johnny Winter - Mean Town Blues lyrics]

Lord my mother she done told me and my
Father done told me grandfather told me too
My mother she done told me
And my father done told me
Grandfather told me too
It's a mean old town to live in by yourself

Yeah, I worked for a dollar could not
Save a lousy could not save a dime
You know I worked for a dollar could not
Save a lousy could not save a dime
Ain't nobody worried, man
Ain't nobody crying

Everybody's got a hand out trying to
Get a hold on trying to get some of my cash
Everybody's got a hand out trying to
Get a hold on trying to get some of my cash
Smiling great big smiles, man
Keep on talking trash

You know I packed up my suitcase and I
Moved on down the hit that lonesome road
You know I packed up my suitcase and I
Moved on down the hit that lonesome road
I'm still trying to make it, man
When the day is done
