Lyrics

I'm buried in worry, surrounded by woe No end to my trouble I can see Depression has got me, won't let me go It's trying to double up on me Good luck has crossed me, bad luck has forced me Down to my one last cent I'm right in the middle of solving the riddle Known as raising the rent Steal, beg or borrow, I've got till tomorrow Landlord's a mean old gent Come to a showdown and he wants the lowdown If I'm raising the rent Better times are taking too long The panic's on and it's hitting me too strong Got a right to sing a blues song Trouble has got me down I've made my mind up I'd rather wind up camping out in a tent Than being in the middle of solving the riddle Known as raising the rent Panic's on and it's hitting me too strong Trouble has got me down, way down I've made my mind up That I'd rather wind up camping out in a tent Than being in the middle of solving the riddle Known as raising the rent
