I ain't gonna tell nobody what, '34 have done for me

They run me from Will Dockery's, Willie Brown, I want your job

I went out and told papa Charley,
|
"I don't want you hangin' round on my job no more"

Carmen got a little six Buick, little six Chevrolet car

|
It may bring sorrow, Lord, and it may bring tears
|
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord, let me see your brand new year
