SAD DAY FOR A POOR MAN

Words: Singing Sam
Music: Jeremy Spencer

(E)Presidents, and preachers too,
Everybody's singin' the (G)get rich (E)blues.
Well they steal your money, and make you cry,
Make you feel like you (G)wanna (E)die.
And it's a (C)sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man.
[Repeat -- (C)sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man]

(E)I went to church the other day,
All they had to say was let's pass the (G)offerin' (E)plate.
I ain't got no money and I'm feelin' real sad.
They said, get outa' here boy, you're (G)just all (E)bad.
And it's a (C)sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man,
(C)Sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man.

(E)-(A)-(D)-(G)-(A)-(E)

(E)I bought a coke at the five and ten.
They said it cost a quarter and that's a (G)real big (E)sin.
I went to lookin' for a job,
They said, cut your hair boy, you (G)filthy (E)slob.
And it's a (C)sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man,
(C)Sad (A)day (B)for a (E)poor man.
