Broke Man Blues Lyrics

Kokomo Arnold Broke Man Blues

Well I dreamed last night now : that my old shack was
falling down
And when I woke up this morning : my poor head was going
round and round

Now I'm going to be a robber and a cheater : I'm going to
take that to be my game
And when I make my black money : I'm going on back home
to Mary Jane

Now when I was a schoolboy : I would not take no one's
advice
Now I'm just a broke man : nobody seems to want to treat
me right

Now my poor heart is aching : and I really don't know
what to do
Says I got a strong notion : coming right on back home to
you

Now I'm going to close conversation : and I have no more
to say
And a since I been a broke man : nobody seems to want to
go my way
