Lyrics
Recorded by hank williams Written by hank williams and fred rose
Capo: 1st fret key: f# play: f Now you're [f] lookin' at a man that's gettin' kind-a mad I had lot's of luck but it's all been bad No [c7] matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world a-[f] live
My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand My woman run away with another man No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
A [bb] distant uncle passed away [bb7] and [f] left me quite a batch [f7] And [bb] I was livin'g high until that fatal [bb7] day A lawyer [c7] proved I wasn't born I was only hatched.---[f]
Ev'rything's agin' me and it's got me down If I jumped in the river I would prob'ly drown No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time Are full of holes and nails And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails
I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow 'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
(Additional verses) I could buy a sunday suit and it would leave me broke If it had two pair of pants I would burn the coat No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
