I should know to them home They follow me the store With these toys I can't Kids, take them back, you know better that that talk, Astronauts, TV games, airplanes They don't and how can I explain?
I try and try but I save Pennies, nickels, dollars away tried and tried but I can't save
My youngest girl has bad fever, All night alcohol to cool and rub her down Ruby, I'm tired, I'm tired, try and get some I'm adding doctor's fees to To the cost of day's work lost
I try and try but I can't Pennies, nickels, dollars slip tried and tried but I can't save
The hole in my is growing "There's a new blowin'", they say It's gonna be a cold, one yourselves my darlings 'Cause it won't bring anything our way But more dust days
I a card in this week's game I took the and the last letters In three of their lottery's been buildin' up for weeks I could be lucky me with the million prize Tears of spillin' out of my eyes
I try and try but I save Pennies, nickels, dollars away I've and tried but I can't save
The hole in my is growing "There's a new wind blowing", say It's gonna be a cold, one yourselves my darlings
"There's a new wind blowing", say And it's be a cold, cold one Brace my darlings 'Cause gonna be a cold, cold one
"There's a new blowing", they say And it's be a cold, cold one So yourselves my darlings 'Cause it won't anything much our way But more dust bowl
