lirik lagu jimmy reed – over the hump
mother had a welfare rent
we lived in a freezin’ up house
the only time we saw some meat
was when we chopped ’em out
hand me down clothes
had holes in and out
now i am a rich man
so happy i could shout
over the hump, no more b-mp
over the hump, no more b-mp
now i am a rich man
no more b-mp for me
i once saw a woman, i thought that i could date
she backed to look at me and asked about my gig
i bought her a sweater, not knowin’ what she think
she threw it back at me, now, now i can buy a mink
over the hump, no more b-mp
over the hump, no more b-mp
now i am a rich man, no more b-mp for me
(i hear ya jimmy)
i was twenty-one, went to buy a beer
the bartender looked at me, an’ said “tramp get out-a here”
i took back my money, wiped the sweat from my face
now i am so angry, i think i’ll buy the place
over the hump, no more b-mp
over the hump, no more b-mp
now i am a rich man, there’s no more b-mp for me
(i hear ya fine)
