Ruth Brown - Things About Coming My Way Lyrics

Ain't got no money
Can't buy no grub.
Backbone and navel
Foin' the belly rub.

cho: Now after all
My hard trav'ling
Things about comin' my way.

The pot was empty
The cupboard bare
I said," Mama
What's goin' on here?"

cho:

The rent was due
The light was out
I said, "Mama
What's it all about."

cho:

Sister was sick
The doctor couldn't come
Cause we couldn't pay him
The proper sum
