Intro

D G D A D

Well my Gwife she took off to DMemphis

With some Afeller from our little Dtown

My Gmother's at home up in BDaltimore

And my Adaddy is down in the gDround

It gets awfully cold here in the winter

Hot and humid in the summertime

I got laid off on account there's no work for me

Now I'm in the unemployment line

No one Gcares about me, no one cDares about me

No one Acares about me at aDll

If I Ghad to guess it's 'cause I'm spDotty at best

No one caAres about me at aDll

Well my kids they've all scattered

Went lookin' for a better life

Lost one of my boys to the drug, man

It's the only time I cried in my life

And I knew this old guy once, he was kinda my friend

But he smoked himself to death

And they buried him out at Riverview

Now I'm all that I got left

Someday I'll go look up my brother

He lives a few miles from here

Haven't talked to him in quite some time

I guess it's been 6 or 7 years

Well he works out there at the cannery

And I think he makes a pretty good pay

His wife, she never thought too much of me

So I just stayed away

Well it's hard to say what kind of fellow I am

But most of the time nothin' goes my way

I must've done somethin' pretty wrong

But I still it'll work out okay

There surely must be some angels around the bend

And they're tryin' to get to me

I'll catch up with them pretty soon

But for now no one cares about me
