Last Dime Blues Lyrics

Blind Willie Mctell Last Dime Blues

Broke and ain't got a dime (repeat)
everybody get in hard luck sometime.

Standin' on Cairo Street one day (repeat)
one dime was all I had.

Mama, don't treat your daughter mean (repeat)
you're the meanest woman I have most ever seen.

Do you want your friend to be buried like Jesse James
(repeat)
give me two big pistols (on the way?) and a passenger
train.

One dime was all I had (repeat)
tryin' to be a sportin' man.

I bought the mornin' news (repeat)
and I bought (sounds like seagull but I might guess)
Seagram's too.
