I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive (Cover Version)

(album: Bowels Of Earth - 2019)

Now you're looking at a man that's getting kinda mad
I had lots of luck but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive

My fishing pole's broke the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive

A distant uncle passed away
and left me quite a batch
And I was living high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born
I was only hatched

Every thing's against me and it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would probably drown
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive

These shabby shoes I'm wearing all the time
Is full of holes and nails
And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickel I could tell you 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
