Don`t Drive Me From Your Door (1930) — текст песни (Lonnie Johnson)


Just look how it`s rainin`, my feet `s on the ground.
Just look how it`s rainin`, and my poor feet `s on the ground.
For the woman I`ve made happy, when she`s after every man in town.

Friends, please open your door, and don`t drive me away.
Please open your door, and don`t drive me away.
The rent man has put me outdoors, and I`ve got no place to stay.

Let me stay here tonight, it`s ice all on the ground.
Let me stay here tonight, it`s ice all over the ground.
`Cause I`m motherless and I`m fatherless, and please don`t turn me down.

When I had plenty money, I had friends all over town.
When I had plenty of money, I had friends all over town.
But just as soon as I got outdoors, none of my friends could be found.

After mother an` father `s gone, a dollar `s your right hand friend.
After mother an` father `s gone, dollar `s your right hand friend.
Then after your last dollar `s gone, you`re like a road that has no end.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, lord where will I go?
I`m beggin` you my friend, don`t drive me from your door.
I cannot sleep on the ground, there`s nothin` but ice and snow.
