(Big Bill Broonzy)
Just sittin' here hungry, ain't got a dime
Looks like my friends would come to see me some time
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door some day
When I was in jail, expectin' a fine,
When I went before that judge, not a friend I could find
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door some day
I lost my father, I lost my brother,
That's why you hear me singin', I'm lonesome and blue
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door someday
Lordy, lordy, lordy, lord, I used to be your reg'lar,
Now I got to be your dog
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door some day
I'm in trouble, no one to pay my fine,
When I get out this time, gonna leave this town flyin'
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door some day
I was with my buddy through thick and thin,
My buddy got away, and I got in
But it won't matter how it happens,
The sun gonna shine in my door some day
