Intro
G Em
[Verse]
G Em
I was born during the hard
G Em
Depression day, oh Lord
G Em
In July down in South Georgia
G Em
Where the sun was hot as a blaze
G Em
My folk was sharecroppers
G Em
At the end of the year
G Em
We had nothing, we had nothing
G Em
We had nothing but grasshoppers
[Chorus]
D C
Looking back over my life
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
G Em
Help me somebody, I need some rest
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
[Verse]
G Em
But I hitchhiked to New York City
G Em
Chicago, Cleveland, and Detroit
G Em
Singing Looooord I'm strong
G Em
Everywhere I went alone
G Em
But everything I do is wrong
[Chorus]
D C
Looking back over my life
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
G Em
Help me right now, I need some rest
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
[Verse]
G Em
I need somebody, to call my own
G Em
Not just a roof, over my head
G Em
But a place, that I call home
G Em
Kiss me baby, squeeze me tight
G Em
Squeeze me sugar, squeeze me all night
[Chorus]
D C
Looking back over my life
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
G Em
Help me somebody, I'm so depressed
G Em
Oh Lord, I need some rest
G Em
Oh Lord, I'm so depressed
