Mean Town Blues (feat. Joe Bonamassa)

Lord my mother she done told me and my father done told me

 My father told me too, yeah my mother she done told me

 And my father done told me, my father told me too, it's a mean old town to

live in by yourself

 Yeah, work for a dollar or several thousand, could not save a dime

 You know I worked for a dollar, or several thousand, man couldn't save a dime

 Ain't nobody worried and there isn't nobody's crying

 Yeah, I got my hands outside to get a hold on, try to get some of my cash

 Lord I try to get my hands outside to get a hold on, try to get some of

my cash

 It's those great big smiles to keep us out of that trash

 So I packed up my suitcase and I move on down, hit that lonesome road

 You know I packed up my suitcase and I hit that lonesome, move on down

 I'm still crying to make it when the day was done
