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