Artist: Papa Charlie Jackson

album: The Complete Recorded Works 1924-1934

Hello there, Charlie
Hello, Ma
Charlie, where's that big banjo you had?
Ma, that big banjo's been pawned
Been pawned?
Yes, Ma'am
Too bad, Jim
Hello, Ma
All right, Charlie
What's become of that great big bus you had?
Ahsomebody stole that bus
Stole it?
Yeah!
Mm-mm-mm!
Charlie, you know I'm broke?
Ma, don't you know I'm broke too?
I tell you what, let's do what we gonna do?
Let's both go to the poorhouse together
All right, let's go together
Too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad
Too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad
I lost all my money, lost everything I had
Ma, being broke's all right
When you know you got some more money comin' in
Ma, being broke's all right
When you know you got some more money comin' in
But when you lose your money, that's where friendship ends
Oh, here I'm on my knees
Don't worry Ma
I'll soon be down on my knees with you
Oh, here I'm on my knees
I want the whole world to know, Mama's broke and can't be pleased
When you have lots of money, you have plenty friends
Lord lost all my money, that was my end
Oh, ain't got no money now
We better go to the poorhouse, and try to live anyhow
Oh, ah, moan it, Ma!
Hear me talking to you, doggone you!
We better go to the poorhouse, and try to live anyhow
