[00:05.136] Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad
[00:09.642] I had lot's of luck but it's all been bad
[00:13.844] No matter how I struggle and strive
[00:17.832] I'll never get out of this world alive
[00:22.120] My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand
[00:26.078] My woman run away with another man
[00:30.013] No matter how I struggle and strive
[00:34.090] I'll never get out of this world alive
[00:39.354] A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch
[00:47.439] And I was livin'g high until that fatal day
[00:51.078] A lawyer proved I wasn't born
[00:53.507] I was only hatched
[00:55.874] Everything's again' me and it's got me down
[00:59.914] If I jumped in the river I would proberbly drown
[01:03.983] No matter how I struggle and strive
[01:08.034] I'll never get out of this world alive
[01:45.027] These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time
[01:49.436] Are full of holes and nails
[01:53.678] And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
[01:57.022] I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails
[02:01.965] I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
[02:06.052] 'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow
[02:10.226] No matter how I struggle and strive
[02:14.317] I'll never get out of this world alive
