Worried Life Blues
|
|
I lived a life but nothing I've gained
|
Each day I'm full of sorrow and pain
|
No one seems enough for poor me
|
To give me a word of sympathy
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will the end be
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will become of poor me
|
|
No father to guide, no mother to care
|
Must bear my troubles all alone
|
Not even a brother to help me share
|
This burden I must bear alone
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will the end be
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will become of poor me
|
|
I'm sittin' and thinkin' of the days gone by
|
They fills my heart with pain
|
I'm too weak to stand and too strong to lie
|
But I'm forgettin' it all in vain
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will the end be
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will become of poor me
|
|
I've travelled and wandered almost everywhere
|
To get a little joy from life
|
Still I've gained but worries and despair
|
Still struggling in this world of strife
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will the end be
|
Oh me, oh my
|
Wonder what will become of poor me
|
