Tampa Red - Stockyard Fire lyrics

Big trouble in the meat house And it's all about that stockyard fire Big trouble in the meat house And it's all about that stockyard fire All of the poor people kickin' Because meat is gone up so higher Let me tell you people What that old stockyard fire will do Let me tell you people What that old stockyard fire will do It will have you eating one And it will have you skippin? two That old stockyard fire Left people in misery That stockyard fire Left people in misery It's got upset and wondering Lord, what will the end be That old stockyard fire Sure did raise some sin That old stockyard fire Sure did raise some sin Lord, it's got so many people Eating out of the garbage can Now I hope these stockyard dealers Could read these poor people's mind If these stockyard dealers Could read these poor people's mind They would drop meat more lower And avoid wasted trouble and time
