Tired As I Could Be

Tired As I Could Be - Lucille Bogan

I worked all the winter and I worked all the fall

I've got to wait until spring to get my ashes hauled

And now I'm tired tired as I can be

And I'm going back home

Where these blues don't worry me

I'm a free hearted woman I let you spend my dough

And you never did win you kept on asking for more

And now I'm tired I ain't gonna do it no more

And when I leave you this time

You won't know where I go

My house rent's due they done put me outdoors

And here you ridina around here in a V8 Ford

I done got tired of your lowdown dirty ways

And your sisters say you've been dirty dirty all your days

I never will forget when the times was good

I caught you standing out yonder in the Piney Woods

And now I'm tired tired as I can be

And I'm going back South to my used to be
