Sound Oysters – Poor, So Down lyrics
I lost another job again today
Now I won't have enough for rent to pay
My guitar and me will sing this corner block
Collect what people give until it's dark
Chorus:
Cause I'm,
Poor, so down and lonely
I'm, poor, so down and lonely
I'd give away my last dollar for a friend
Had I one to spend
I'll be drinking coffee grounds again this week
And cooking 'Johnny Cake' or something sweet
I like to celebrate around this time
I'll have a toast, or three, or maybe nine
I feel better not knowin' what's in store
Chorus:
Had a woman, she done left me long ago
I always see her face when times are low
I have myself, and no one else to blame
I turn my back, another bridge in flames
But it doesn't seem to matter anymore
Chorus:
Now I won't have enough for rent to pay
My guitar and me will sing this corner block
Collect what people give until it's dark
Chorus:
Cause I'm,
Poor, so down and lonely
I'm, poor, so down and lonely
I'd give away my last dollar for a friend
Had I one to spend
I'll be drinking coffee grounds again this week
And cooking 'Johnny Cake' or something sweet
I like to celebrate around this time
I'll have a toast, or three, or maybe nine
I feel better not knowin' what's in store
Chorus:
Had a woman, she done left me long ago
I always see her face when times are low
I have myself, and no one else to blame
I turn my back, another bridge in flames
But it doesn't seem to matter anymore
Chorus:
