I keep on tryin` to get ahead, I`m doin` the best I can But every time I try to pull up They pull me right back down again You got me down now and I hope you`re satisfied Oh, it`s so hard to try to keep my head up Yes, when you`re puttin` pressure on me From every side, every side
Even Uncle Sam say I owe a lot of money way back from nineteen fifty six Now, how could I owe him anything When that whole year I was sick They won`t let me make my money Won`t even let me buy my clothes Oh, it`s so hard to get something to eat Yes, and now they want to throw me outdoors Throw me outdoors
Yes, everybody`s laughin` at me I can see the joy in their eyes They`re glad because I`m down now Just look at the Devils in disguise And I have no-one to turn to No-one to lend me a helpin` hand Oh, I`m tellin` you, shakes has really got me now Yes, I`m a lonely, lonely man
