Big Joe Williams — I Won't Be In Luck No More lyrics

Lyrics

I said goodbye baby: oh yes I got to go
I don’t want to be wearing mustache: ooo well mistreated
for Mr so‑and‑so
I say the hard luck and trouble: every place I go
I believe somebody put bad luck on me: ooo well I believe now it’s time to go
I had money baby: I even had friends for miles around
Well all the money gone: ooo well and my friends cannot
be found
I started down: I started down in Polack Town
Seem like the snitches and the police babe: trying to tear poor Joe’s reputation down
Now you can hear me when I’m down: be the same way when
I rise
I got a gal in East St Louis: she lives in Polack Town
