I Ain't Got No Home Lyrics

I ain't got no home, I'm just a ramblin' around
A hard working ramblin' man, I go from town to town
The police make it hard wherever I may go
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

I was farmin' on the shares and always I was poor
My crops I laid into the banker's door
And my wife took down and died upon the cabin floor
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

I ain't got no home, I'm just a ramblin' around
A hard working ramblin' man, I go from town to town
The police make it hard wherever I may go
And I Ain't Got No Home in this world anymore

Now as I look around it's mighty plain to see
This wide wicked world is a funny place to be
The gamblin' man is rich and the workin' man is poor
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

The version I have has different words for the third verse...either way, this is an incredible song about trying to find work during the depression

I've heard a couple of different versions. This is simply the version I had on my computer when I submitted these lyrics.

You should listen to the Musee Mecanique cover. It's five minutes long, they added lyrics and it's very beautiful.

Not Valid

All the songs from Dust Bowl Ballads have a nice background music, I can say, listening to the music alone, is kinda bright. What do you think...e mail me pls. But the lyrics are so strong, dramatic and deep...please tell me your comment with what I said, I really need to know.

Thanks for the lyrics.
