God Help Me Songtext
von Clifford T. Ward

My coat′s old but it's got a good lining
Round the cuffs it started to fray
Found a hole in the back of my pocket
Must have lost my money that way
Ho! God help me
It′s started to rain
Ho! God help me
I'm feeling the strain
I came down from the back of Virginia
Got in a brawl in a dirty saloon
Big fella said "I thought I'd seen ya"
With my lady looking up at the moon
Ho! God help me
It′s started to rain
Ho! God help me
I′m feeling the strain
I got a degree in philosophy
At the University of Birmingham
Then I shaved my face, got sick of the pace
So I quit the race, I couldn't give a damn


My shoes leak, my feet are dirty
My back aches and my head is sore
Got mixed up with a gal named Gertie
Was all I could do to reach the door
Ho! God help me
It′s started to rain
Ho! God help me
I'm feeling the strain
I got a degree in philosophy
At the University of Birmingham
Then I shaved my face, got sick of the pace
So I quit the race, I couldn′t give a damn
My shoes leak, my feet are dirty
My back aches and my head is sore
Got mixed up with a gal named Gertie
Was all I could do to reach the door
Ho! God help me
It's started to rain
Ho! God help me
I′m feeling the strain
Ho! God help me
It's started to rain
Ho! God help me
I'm feeling the strain
Ho! God help me
It′s started to rain
Ho! God help me
I′m feeling the strain
