Oh, is that you in my own voted cryin'?
Everybody is down on me
Oh, is that you in my own voted cryin'?
Everybody is down on me

And I don't bother nobody
But they all they, all the time, talkin' about me

Yeah, you know the sun is shinin'
People at the dark cloud riding in the West
Yeah, you know the sun is shinin'
People at the dark cloud riding in the West

Lord, what can I do for the bread?

Yeah, but you know, the sun gonna shine
Oh, lord, in my backdoor one day
Yeah, you know, the sun gonna shine
Oh, lord, in my backdoor one day

Yeah, and I want to be hanging 'round in the town, oh lord
Done it, like the people said

Oh, lord, to put a telephone
Yeah, I begged for a nickel
Oh, lord, to put a telephone

Yeah, and I wanted to talk to my baby

Yeah, you know the sun is shinin'
People at the dark cloud riding in the West
Yeah, you know the sun is shinin'
People at the dark cloud riding in the West

Yeah, and I hung my head out crying, oh lord
What can I do for the bread?
