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