I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive Lyrics - The Little Willies - Little Willies

Well, you're lookin' at a guy that's gettin' kinda mad 

I had lot of luck but it's all been bad 

No matter how I struggle and strive 

I'll never get out of this world alive 

My fishin' pole's broke, the creek is full of sand 

My woman run away with another man 

No matter how I struggle and strive 

I'll never get out of this world alive 

A distant uncle passed away, he left me quite a batch 

Yes I was livin' high until that fatal day 

A lawyer proved I wasn't born 

I was only hatched 

Everything's agin' me and it's got me down 

If I jumped in the river I would probably drown 

No matter how I struggle and strive 

I'll never get out of this world alive 

These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all 

Are full of holes and nails 

Yes and brother if I stepped on a worn out dime 

I bet a nickel I could tell you if it's heads or tails 

If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance 

I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants 

No matter how I struggle and strive 

I'll never get out of this world alive 

A distant uncle passed away, he left me quite a batch 

And yes I was livin' high until that fatal day 

A lawyer proved I wasn't born 

I was only hatched 

I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow 

'Cause nothing's ever gonna turn out alright now 

No matter how I struggle and strive 

I'll never get out of this world alive 

I'll never get out of this world alive
