Broke and ain't got a dime (repeat)
everybody get in hard luck sometime.
Standin' on Cairo Street one day (repeat)
one dime was all I had.
Mama, don't treat your daughter mean (repeat)
you're the meanest woman I have most ever seen.
Do you want your friend to be buried like Jesse James (repeat)
give me two big pistols (on the way?) and a passenger train.
One dime was all I had (repeat)
tryin' to be a sportin' man.
I bought the mornin' news (repeat)
and I bought (sounds like seagull but I might guess) Seagram's too.
