...Want to tell you a story

About the house-man blues

I come home one Friday

Had to tell the landlady I'da lost my job

She said that don't confront me

Long as I get my money next Friday

Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent

And out the door I went

MI
 So I goes to the landlady

I said you let me slide?

I'll have the rent for you in a month

Next I don't know

So said let me slide it on you know people

I notice when I come home in the evening

She ain't got nothing nice to say to me

But for five year she was so nice

Loh' she was lovy-dovy

I come home one particular evening

The landlady said you got the rent money yet?

I said no, can't find no job

Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent

She said I don't believe 

you're tryin' to find no job

Said I seen you today you was standin' on a corner

Leaning up against a post

I said but I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day

She said that don't confront me

Long as I get my money next Friday

Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent

And out the door I went

MI
 So I go down the streets

Down to my good friend's house

I said look man I'm outdoors you know

Can I stay with you maybe a couple days?

He said let me go and ask my wife

He come out of the house

I could see it in his face

I know that was no

He said I don't know man 

ah she kinda funny, you know

I said I know, everybody funny, now you funny too

So I go back home

I tell the landlady I got a job, 

I'm gonna pay the rent

She said yeah, I said oh yeah

And then she was so nice

Loh' she was lovy-dovy

MI
 So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go

I slip on out the back door 

and down the streets I go

She a-howlin' about the front rent, 

she'll be lucky to get any back rent

She ain't gonna get none of it

So I stop in the local bar you know people

I go to the bar, I ring my coat, 

I call the bartender

Said look man, come down here, he got down there
