Blind Willie McTell - Last Dime Blues Lyrics

Broke and ain't got a dime
Everybody get in hard luck sometime

Standin' on Cairo Street one day
One dime was all I had

Mama, don't treat your daughter mean
You're the meanest woman I have most ever seen

Do you want your friend to be buried like Jesse James
Give me two big pistols (on the way?) and a passenger
Train

One dime was all I had
Tryin' to be a sportin' man

I bought the mornin' news
And I bought a cigar too
