Hank Williams - I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive

Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad
I've had a lots of luck but it's all be bad
No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
My fishin' pole is broke the creek is full of sand
My woman ran away with another man
No matter how I struggle abd strive I'll never get out of this world alive

A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch
And I was livin' high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born I was only hatched
Everythin's again' me and it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would probly drown
No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
[ guitar - piano ]
These shabby shoe I'm wearin' all the time is full of holes and nails
And brother if I stopped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickeI I could tell if it was heads or tails
I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
Cause nothing's ever gonna be alright no how
No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive
