From: SINSULL That is a line from a C&W song I have asked about before: POOR FOLK Haven't got a nickel Haven't got a dime Wondering why we're poor folk all the time _______ Want a hill to climb Wondering why we're poor folk all the time What's the use of working I can't save a cent Can't say I'm exactly broke I'm just badly bent It's from a 78RPM long lost. Need to know lyrics and artist. |

From: Charley Noble Reminds me of a verse from "The Panic Is On" which runs: All them landlords done raised the rent, Folks that ain't broke are badly bent; Where they gets dough from, goodness knows, But if they don't produce it, in the streets they go, Doggone – I mean the panic is on. |
