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