Bad Housing Blues - Josh White
Written by:Waring Cuny/Josh White
I woke up this morning rain water in my bed
I woke up this morning rain water in my bed
You know my roof was leaking lord leaking on my head
Now there ain't no reason I should live this way
Now there ain't no reason I should live this way
I done lost my job can't even get on the W.P.A.
Lord I wonder when I'll hear good news
Lord I wonder when I'll hear good news
Right now I'm gonna tell you how I got them bad
Housing blues
I'm goin' to the Capitol goin' to the White House lawn
I'm goin' to the Capitol goin' to the White House lawn
Better wipe out these slums been this way since
I was born
