STOCKYARD BLUES Left home this morning ‘Bout half past nine Past the stockyards The boys was on the picket line You know I need to earn a dollar You know I need to make a dollar Cause the cost of livin’ has gone so high Darlin’ I don’t know what to do I went to the butcher To get my beef He said the price is up On all of my meats You know I need to earn a dollar You know I need to make a dollar Cause the cost of livin’ has gone so high Darlin’ I don’t know what to do I rent for real estate I got the news Gonna raise your rent Pay more money or you move So I need to earn a dollar You know I need to make a dollar The cost of living gone so high Darlin’ I don’t know what to do Got the bus one morning About half past four When I got my transfer It’s a nickel more You know I need to earn a dollar You know I need to make a dollar With the cost of living gone so high Darlin’ I don’t know what to do

STOCKYARD BLUES I caught the street car this morning about half past 4 I gave a man 11 cents He says: " It's 2 cents more " You know I need to earn a dollar You know I need to make a dollar Cause the cost of livin’ has gone so high Darlin’ I don’t know what to do.
