No Money in My Pocket Songtext
von Bobby Womack

Lord have mercy
We′re gonna have a soul time here this evening, children
Look out

How long the, the will trouble last?
Won't somebody tell me
When will hard times pass?
I mean, my baby, we′ve been feeling bad
(Look a here)
Wishing for something we ain't never had
(Y'all know what I′m talking ′bout)


My last suit's gone
(Tell ′em what you had to do)
Had to go and hock it
(Lord, have mercy)
Had to get some money, had to get it in my pocket (oh)

Money, yeah, uh, like to get it in my pocket (ow)
If good things come to those that wait
Won't somebody tell me, why mine′s come so late?

Ah me and my baby, Lord knows we're tired
We′re tired of walking
We're tired of running and bummin' rides, yeah

That old car we had
(Yes, Lord tell the truth)
Is back on the market
(Tell ′em why)
′Cause, 'cause it couldn′t bring no money (what?)
There in my pocket, oh!


Money, I'm talking ′bout soul green
Y'all know what I mean
Now yesterday I went to the doctor
