This is a mean old world, baby, to live in by yourself This is a mean old world to live in by your self When you can't get the woman you love, you know she's Loving someone else Well, I drink to keep from worrying and I smile to Keep from crying I drink to keep from worrying, baby, I smile to keep From crying That's to keep the public from knowing just what I Have on my mind Some day, some day, baby, I'll be six feet in my Grave Some day, some day, darling, I'll be six feet in my Grave And, I won't be around here to be mistreated, darling Like a low-down slave
