DOWN & OUT

Lyrics

Ive never had much......growing up....
Seems like....nothing there....
has changed much,
Oh....its so.....sad but it's true,
And all I can do....
Is wait it out if I want to make it through ...... Oh..... oh.....oh....
.................................
Cause Ive went from nothin,
to having some, to having it all and then to have'n none
.........isn't it funny,
how life and money together just don't add up
So for now.....
I'm just gonna be...... down and out.....on my luck....
................................

mmmmm.......mmmmmm.......mmmm..and
Ive asked for help and didn't get it........I even filed for.......public assistance,
but things like those.....are all one big joke.....trust that I know so......cause I've been down that road.....

So maybe this..... is where I am supposed to be,
but I sure hope for something sooner rather than eventually.....Well I guess i will have to.....wait....and see......
mmmmm......mmmmm.......mmmmm.....

..................................

Everyday, its crossed my mind,
That having money,
Sure would be nice.....
Oh......oh.....I'm not asking for much,
cause somethin is better than nothin and I....... I'm really...... hope'n......
That this singing thing
can get me anywhere but here and a dollar to my name.......

But I just don't get,
My hopes up over it......
Cause Im use to being handed nothing but shit......
So....if this singing thing doesn't bring me in any pay,
Than I guess it was just another lesson made to be thrown in my face,
......Oh....its so.....sad but it's true,
And all I can...do
Is wait this one out,
if I want to make it through ,...... Oh..... oh.....oh....
.................................

And so......maybe this is where Im supposed to be,
but I hope for something better to come towards me.....and hopefully it will come sooner rather than later, but I guess for now its .....eventually, we will see......
mmmmm......mmmmm.......mmmmm.....

Cause Ive went from having nothin, and then to having somethin, to once having it all and then to having none................it's funny how life and money just doesn't add up,
And So....... for now.....
I'm just gonna be down and out...on my luck.....

But By God's good grace....i know how to survive....cause I've been through worse and had gotten by,
cause I went from have'n nothin, to having some, to having it all and then to having none................it's funny how life and money just doesn't ....add up,
So for now......even when down and out on my luck ....
..................................mmmmm......mmmmm.......mmmmm.....

Oh its sad but true... but what can I do .... Oh I'll figure something out, cause I always get by somehow.
..oh......oh.....oh....
..........la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la ....mmm.....mmmmmm.....mmmmmmmm
