(harmonica intro)

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

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

Now, you need to go get you real, white man
You know, to sign yo' note
They give ya a pair of them shoes
I no a-them pleat-back, soldier coat

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

(harmonica, drums, guitar)

President Roosevelt said, on people
gonna treat ev'ryone right
Said, give ya a can of them beans
An a can or two of old tripe

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

Well now, me an my baby we yesterday
An we in my backyard
She said, 'I'll care-a you, Sonny Boy
Just as long as these stay hard'
An I told her, 'Yeah, baby an I sho' have to go'

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