Abner Jay I'm So Depressed
[Spoken Intro]
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
Oh, Lord, I'm so depressed
