Lyrics

Oh Lord, oh Lord, baby
What in the world gonna become of me?
I don't know, I don't know, baby
Lord, Lord, Lord
What in the world gonna 'come of me?
These hard times, hard times, baby
'Bout to get the best of me
You know Paul Chrysler, God knows been under, for 90 days already
Was one thing, now people
Lord, I sure can't understand at all
What in the world gonna become of me?
This dog gon' strike soon
It's gon' become over, people
God knows my life can't last any longer
I go to the welfare
This is what the welfare said
"Look at here now man, one type-a, a-beans
And one can-a tripe" I said, "No"
God know that will never do
If Paul Chrysler will soon end this strike God knows, God knows
I don't know what I'm gonna do
Written by: Bernard Besman, John Lee Hooker
