How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times And Live Bruce Springsteen
Well, the doc[G]tor comes 'round here with[D] his face all bright [G]
And he says "in a little while you'll be alright" [D]
All he gi[G]ves is a humbug pill, a dose of dope and[C] a great big bill [Am]
Tell me,[G] how can a poor man sta[D]nd such times and live? [CGCGCGCD]
He[G] says "me and my old school pals had some might high times d[D]own here
And what happened to you poor black folks, well it just ain't fair" [D]
He took a look around[G] gave a little pep talk, said "I'm with you" [C]then he took a little [Am]walk
Tell me[G], how can a poor man st[D]and such times and live?[CGCGCGCD]
T[G]here's bodies floatin' on Canal and the levees gone[D] to Hell [G]
Martha, get me my sixteen gauge and some dry shells [D]
Them who's got g[G]ot out of town
And them who ain't [C]got left to drown [Am]
Tell me, ho[G]w can a poor man stand su[D]ch times and live? [C] [D] [G]
I got family scattered from Texas all the w[D]ay to Baltimore [G]
And I ain't got no home in this world no more [D] [C]
Gonna be a judg[G]ment that's a fact, a righteous train rolli[C]n' down this track [Am]
Tell me,[G] how can a poor man sta[D]nd such times and live? [CGCGCGCD]
