Leroy Carr with Scrapper Blackwell - Bread Baker

Tight Time Blues - Original Mix

Times is done got so tight, so I'm going to rob and steal
Times is done got so tight, so I'm going to rob and steal
It's done got so tight a man can't get a decent meal

I ain't got no shoes and I ain't got no clothes
I ain't got no shoes and I ain't got no clothes
The house rent man has done put my things outdoors

It was thundering and a lightning oh Lord how it did rain
It was thundering and a lightning oh Lord how it did rain
But somehow I'm going to get even with that house rent man

I've done got evil and I've done got mean
I've done got evil and I've done got mean
And when I start to stealing I'm going to pick the rounders clean
