Letra de James Alley Blues

Times ain't now nothing like they used to be
Oh, times ain't now nothing like they used to be
I'm tellin' you the truth, oh now, take it for from me
I done seen better days but I'm puttin' up with these
I done seen better days, I'm puttin' up with these
I could have a much better time if you girls weren't so hard to please
Cause I was born in the country she thinks I'm easy to rule
Cause I was born in the country she thinks I'm easy to rule
Shе wanna hitch me to her wagon, she wanna drivе me like a mule
How you want me to love you, you keep on treatin' me mean
How do you want me to love you, you keep a treatin' me mean
You're my daily thought and my nightly dream
You know I bought the groceries and I paid the rent
You know I bought the groceries and I paid the rent
Try to make me wash her clothes but I got good common sense
Well, if you don't want me why don't you tell me so
Why, if you don't want me why don't you tell me so
Cause it ain't like a man that ain't got nowhere to go
Sometimes I think you're too sweet to die
Sometimes I think you're too sweet to die
And another time I think you oughta be buried alive
Times ain't now nothing like they used to be
Oh, times ain't now nothing like they used to be
I'm tellin' you the truth, oh now, take it for from me
