Lyrics
I was born on the wrong side of town where a good girl never would go
I fell asleep each night to the sound of a fight and the police breaking the door
Little baby born, little baby dies
No time for flowers or drying your eyes
Daddy caught ramblin' fever til a bullet caught him
And mama slipped away on a keg of slow gin
Chorus
So dontcha talk about suffering here below 'cause I could tell you or thing or two
Dontcha talk about suffering here below
'Cause I can show you what the devil can do
Show you what the devil can do
It seems there's two kinda men in this world to be found
The one you can't have and one you don't want around
I always wind up with the worst of the two
It's not only my heart that gets black and blue
Chorus
Bridge
See that train a-comin', and dont you want to go
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble hear below
