(harmonica intro)

Now me an my we talked late last night
An we talked for hour
She wanted me to go down to the welfare
And get a sack a-that welfare

But I her, 'No'
'Baby an I sho' wanna go'
I said, 'I'll do in the world for you
I don't wanna go down to welfare sto'

Now, you to go get you some real, white man
You know, to yo' little note
They give ya a pair of them king-toed
I want no pleat-back, soldier coat

But I 'er, 'No'
'Baby an I sho' wanna go
I say, 'I'll do anything in the for ya
I don't wanna go down to that welfare sto'

(harmonica, drums, guitar)

President Roosevelt said, on welfare
They treat ev'ryone right
Said, they ya a can of them beans
An a can or two of old tripe

But I told 'er,
'Baby, an I sho' don't go
I say, 'I'll do anything in the for ya
'But I wanna go down to that welfare sto', now

now, me an my baby we talked yesterday
An we in my backyard
She said, 'I'll take care-a you, Boy
as long as these times stay hard'
An I her, 'Yeah, baby an I sho' won't have to go'

I said, 'If you do for me
I won't to go down to that welfare sto'.
