CWell if you ain’t got nothing you ain’t got nothing to lose
There ain’t no pleasure in singing these low down G7blues
CSmoking that get down and bumming them Red Man Fchews
If you Cain’t got nothing you G7ain’t got nothing to Close
Daddy was a freeloader working for the railroad Fline
I D7grew up listening to brother can you spare me a G7dime
The Coil situation and the world’s inflation and the bomb would be bad Fnews
But when you Cain’t got nothing you G7ain’t got nothing to Close
CWell if you ain’t got nothing you ain’t got nothing to lose
There ain’t no pleasure in singing these low down G7blues
CSmoking that get down and bumming them Red Man Fchews
If you Cain’t got nothing you G7ain’t got nothing to Close
I used to work my fingers to the Fbone
I D7had everything that me and the bank could G7own
But Ca sweaty blue collar and a deflated dollar ain’t no way to pay your Fdues
But if you Cain’t got nothing you G7ain’t got nothing to Close
CWell if you ain’t got nothing you ain’t got nothing to lose
There ain’t no pleasure in singing these low down G7blues
CSmoking that get down and bumming them Red Man Fchews
If you Cain’t got nothing you G7ain’t got nothing to Close
