Well, I used to trade with a man by the name of Gray,

Flour was fifty cents for a twenty-four pound bag.

Now it's a dollar and a half beside,

Just like a-skinning off a flea for the hide

Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?

Well, the doctor comes around with a face all bright,

And he says in a little while you'll be all right.

All he gives is a humbug pill,

A dose of dope and a great big bill --

Tell me how can a poor man stand such times and live?

By the way this song written 1929 has the line "I used to trade with a man by the name of Gray".

And this is in Dylan's Idiot Wind "They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me"

Bob certainly borrowed from the greats !!

Blind Alfred Reed's orginal lyrics were great too;

There once was a time when everything was cheap,

But now prices nearly puts a man to sleep.

When we pay our grocery bill,

We just feel like making our will --

Most all preachers preach for gold and not for souls,

That's what keeps a poor man always in a hole.

We can hardly get our breath,

Taxed and schooled and preached to death --

GOD AT WORK !!!!!!!!

Damn what is the name of that song! My uncle introduced it to me (hes a massive Springsteen fan) and I loved it but never did anything about finding it!

[cacazov]

It's "O mary don't you weep"

[hrddrvn]

great song one of my favorites live in dublin is hands down the best sickest jamming shows on the entire seeger sessions tour it is a must have
