How Can A Poor Man Stands Such Times And Live - Ry Cooder
Well the doctor comes around
With his face all bright
And he says "In a little
While you'll be all right"
All he gives is a humbug pill
Dose of dope and a great big bill
Tell me
How can a poor man stand such times and live
Well there once was a time
When every thing was cheap
But now prices nearly puts a man to sleep
When we get our grocery bill
We just feel like making our will
Tell me
How can a poor man stand such times and live
Prohibitions good if it's conducted right
There's no sense in shooting a man 'til he shows flight
Officers kill without a cause then
They complain about the funny laws
Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live
