  • Well, the doctor comes 'round here with his face all bright
    And he says "in a little while you'll be alright"
    All he gives is a humbug pill, a dose of **** and a great big bill
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
    "Me and my old school pals had some mighty high times down here
    And what happened to you poor black folks, well it just ain't fair"
    He took a look around, gave a little pep talk, said "I'm with you" then he took a little walk
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
    There's bodies floatin' on Canal and the levees gone to Hell
    Martha, get me my sixteen gauge and some dry shells
    Them who's got got out of town and them who ain't got left to drown
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
    Go ahead!
    Got family scattered from Texas all the way to Baltimore
    Yeah and I ain't got no home in this world no more
    Gonna be a judgment that's a fact, a righteous train rollin' down this track
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
    Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?
