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