No Job Blues Lyrics

I been walking all day : and all night too
Because my meal ticket woman have quit me : and I can't
find no work to do

I picking up the newspaper : and I looking in the ads
And the policeman came along : and he arrested me for vag

I said judge : judge what may be my fine He said get your pick and shovel : and get deep down in
mine

I'm a poor black prisoner : working in the ice and snow
I got to get me another meal ticket woman : so I won't
have to work no more
