lyrics

=================================================

Well you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad
I had lots of luck but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle & strive
I'll never get outta this world alive

My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man

No matter how I struggle & strive
I'll never get outta this world alive

Well my distant uncle passed away & left me quite a batch
And I was living high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born
I was only hatched

Now everything's against me & it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would probably drown

No matter how I struggle & strive
I'll never get outta this world alive

Well the shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time
Is full of holes & nails
And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails

I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow

No matter how I struggle & strive
I'll never get outta this world alive
