J.B. Lenoir Eisenhower Blues song lyrics

Eisenhower Blues

Hey everybody, I was talkin' to you

I ain't tellin' you jivin', this is the natural truth

Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues

Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

My money's gone, my fun is gone

The way things look, how can I be here long?

Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues

Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

Taken all my money, to pay the tax

I'm only givin' you people, the natural facts

I only tellin' you people, my belief

Because I am headed straight, on relief

Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues

Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?

Ain't go a dime, ain't even got a cent

I don't even have no money, to pay my rent

My baby needs some clothes, she needs some shoes

Peoples I don't know what, I'm gonna do

Mm mm mm, I got them Eisenhower blues

Thinkin' about me and you, what on earth are we gonna do?
