Tin Cup Blues - Blind Lemon Jefferson
Written by：Blind Lemon Jefferson/John Steiner
I was down and I cried
My pillowcase was on the line
I was down and I cried
My pillowcase was on the line
Ain't it tough to see a man
Go to wreck and almost
Fall and die
I stood on the corner
And almost bust my head
I stood on the corner
And almost bust my head
I couldn't earn enough money
To buy me a loaf of bread
Baby times is so hard
I almost call it tough
Baby times is so hard
I almost call it tough
I can't earn money to buy no bread
And you know I can't
Buy my snuff
My gal's a housemaid
And she earns a dollar a week
And my gal's a housemaid
And she earns a dollar a week
And I'm so hungry on payday
I can't hardly speak
Now gather around me people
Let me tell you a true fact
Now gather around me people
Let me tell you a true fact
That tough luck has sunk me
And the rats is creeping in
My hat
