[00:00:00] How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times And Live - Ry Cooder

[00:00:42] I remember a time when everything was cheap

[00:00:51] Now prices nearly puts a man to sleep

[00:01:00] Well when we get our grocery bill

[00:01:06] We feel like making our will

[00:01:10] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live

[00:01:20] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live

[00:01:40] Well the doctor comes around with his face all bright

[00:01:48] And he says in a little while you'll be all right

[00:01:58] Well all he gives is a humbug pill

[00:02:04] Dose of dope and a great big bill

[00:02:08] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live

[00:02:18] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live

[00:05:26] Most preachers well they preach for gold and not for soul

[00:05:35] Well that's what keeps us poor folks always in a hole

[00:05:44] Now we can hardly get our breath

[00:05:50] Taxed and schooled and preached to death

[00:05:55] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live

[00:06:04] Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live
