Hank Williams Sr. - I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive lyrics

[Verse 1] Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kind-a mad I had lots of luck but it's all been bad [Chorus] No matter how I struggle and strive I'll never get out of this world alive [Verse 2] My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand My woman run away with another man [Chorus] [Verse 3] A distant uncle pa**ed away and left me quite a batch And I was living high until that fatal day A lawyer proved I wasn't born I was only hatched Every thing's against me and it's got me down If I jumped in the river I would probably drown [Chorus] [Verse 4] These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time Is full of holes and nails And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright no-how [Chorus]
