(harmonica intro)

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

But I told her,
'Baby an I sho' wanna go'
I said, 'I'll do anything in the for you
I don't wanna go to that welfare sto'

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

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

(harmonica, drums, guitar)

Roosevelt said, on welfare people
They gonna treat ev'ryone
Said, they give ya a can of them
An a can or two of old tripe

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', now

Well now, me an my baby we yesterday
An we in my backyard
She said, 'I'll take 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'.
