If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
There ain't no pressure
When you're singin' these low down blues
Smokin' that git down
Bummin' them red men chews
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
Daddy was a free loader
Workin' for the railroad line
I grew up listenin' to
"Buddy, can you spare a dime?"
Oh, situation and the world's inflation
And the bomb could be bad news
But when you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
There ain't no pressure
When you're singin' these low down blues
Smokin' that git down
Bummin' them red men chews
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose

I used to work my fingers to the bone
I had everything that me and the bank could own
But a sweaty blue collar and a deflated dollar
Ain't no way to pay your dues
Well, if you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
And there ain't no pressure
When you're singin' these low down blues
Smokin' that git down
Bummin' them red men chews
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
If you ain't got nothin'
You ain't got nothin' to lose
