Lyrics

Life is bare, I see pork chops in the air
Starvation
Since my gal I love, ain't joined no more
Conversation
You know, I wouldn't tell a lie
But I'm hungry all the time
It ain't what you think
I'm bred, Ma, to stick up me a bank
But I'm afraid to risk it
Or if some rich widder
Would walk up here right now, give poor Maybelle a biscuit
It profits me nothing to lie
I stays hungry all the time
Life is bare, I see food everywhere
It may seem funny
All things done gone up so high nowadays
Until it's cheaper to eat money
You know, I wouldn't lie
But I'm hungry all the time
You know, I won't tell a lie
But I stays hungry all the time
I can't tell no lie
I'm hungry all the time
