| | RY COODER - How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times And Live? Lyrics
[Alfred Reed]
[G] - [C] - [G7] - [D] - [D7] - [Am]
[G] I remember a time when every [D] thing was [G] cheap
Now prices nearly puts a man to [D] sleep
[D7] Well, when we [G] get our grocery [G7] bill
We [C] feel like making our [Am] will
Tell me, [G] how can a poor man [D7] stand such times and [G] live ?
Tell me, [G] how can a poor man [D7] stand such times and [G] live ?
Well, the doctor comes around with his face all bright
And he says, In a little while you'll be all right! g1m141423o7141515bmm2o
Well, 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 ?
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live ?
Most preachers, well, they preach for gold and not for soul
Well, that's what keeps us poor folks always in a hole
Now, we can hardly get our breath
Taxed and schooled and preached to death
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live ?
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live ?
