Now I'm down and out ain't got no friends around Now I'm down and out ain't got no friends around I'm going from door to door everybody turns me down Now my woman she treats me like I'm a motherless child Now my woman she treats me like I'm a motherless child Now baby she don't give me a pleasant smile Now here I am people all out in the ice and snow Now here I am people all out in the ice and snow My clothes all in pawn ain't got nowhere to go She said she liked my music but my tune's too short She said she liked my music but my tune's too short But if she gets a long winded player she's sure to get caught Now babe I can't help it if I can't play long Now babe I can't help it if I can't play long I'm just a skinny fellow and I ain't very strong
