One Dime Blues
(Blind Lemon Jefferson)

I'm broke and I aint got a dime,
I'm broke and I aint got a dime,
I'm broke and aint got a dime,
Everybody gets in hard luck
    sometime.

You want your friend to be bad like
    Jesse James ?
You want your friend to be bad like
    Jesse James ?
You want your friend to be bad like
    Jesse James ?
Just give'm a six shooter and
    highway some passenger train.

From Hard Hitting Songs, Guthrie et al
Recorded by Blind Lemon Jefferson, Paramount 12578-B
