Poor and Ain't Got a Dime

Poor and Ain't Got a Dime - Floyd Council

I was layin' upstairs laying on my cold iron bed

I was layin' upstairs laying on my cold iron bed

When I received the news the woman I love was dead

I didn't have no money then I could not go home

I didn't have no money then I could not go home

Then I walked to my window

And I dropped my head to moan

Lord Lord woman I love is dead and gone

Lord Lord woman I love is dead and gone

Yeah I am broke and hungry

Five hundred miles from home

Yeah hoo-yeah uh-huh

Yeah hee-yeah-ah

Yeah hee-yeah uh-huh

I'm going down to the river fall on my bended knee

I'm going down to the river fall on my bended knee

I'm going to Good Lord to help me if he please
