I'm So Depressed - Abner Jay

I'm So Depressed

I was born during the hard depression day, oh, my Lord.

In July, in South Georgia,

Where the sun was hot in a blaze,

My folk was share cropper

At the end of the year, we had nothing,

We had nothing, we had nothing but grass hoppers

Looking back over my life,

Oh, Lord, I'm so depressed.

Help me, somebody, I need some rest,

Oh, Lord, I'm so depressed.

Every boy needs a girl, every girl needs a boy

I'm a boy so full of love,

I have no one to hold my hand.

Tell me, how long must I wander,

Tell me, how long must I cry

Will there be someone, someone to wipe,

Dry the tear from my eye.

Come on, baby, rub my head,

Rub my head while I lay down in my bed.

Kiss, kiss me, kiss me, baby,

'Til I feel alright, 'til I feel alright.

Oh, looking back over my life,

Oh, Lord, I'm so depressed.

Help me, somebody, I need some rest.

Oh, Lord, I'm so depressed.
