Текст песни High Inflation Blues

Tryin' to make a livin' gets harder every day

By the time I see a dollar there's another bill to pay

I got a wife and family and the bills are pilin' high

These days it ain't easy for a working man to get by.

I can't help but wonder

What a man's suppose to do

I got those hard breaking

Escalatin' high inflation blues.

--- Instrumental ---

By the time I get to payday the money's already gone

Someone's eatin' chicken all I git are the bones

My wife needs a new coat the kids need clothes for school

We're all out of grocery's and it's Tuesday afternoon.

Well, it could drive a man to drinkin'

But I can't afford the booze

I got those hard breaking

Escalatin' high inflation blues.

--- Instrumental ---

The cost of livin' keeps goin' up and taxes ain't goin' down

I'm just treadin' water and tryin' not to drown

Mr Carter I know you're up there and I should could use a hand

So won't you please have mercy on a common working man.

I just keep on tryin'

Doin' all that I can do

I got those hard breaking

Escalatin' high inflation blues (yodel)...
