Says, folks, I'm gonna tell you what depression has done to me
Aw, folks, I'm gonna tell you what depression has done to me
Says, it robbed me of my brown-skinned woman, and I'm worried as I can be
When I had my money I had women and friends hangin' around
When I had my money I had women and friends hangin' around
I done lost my money and my women and friends just can't be found
SOLO
Lord, my flour barrel's empty, Lord, my money is gone
So my flour barrel is empty, Lord, my money is gone
So I'm trying to sing you, people, about this depression song
SOLO
This depression's robbed me, mmmmmmmm, but
Says, I've got no women and, Lord, my friends is gone
Besides bein' broke, I'm lyin', left alone
