[00:00.00]Living in a Strain - Mississippi Sheiks
[00:10.25]Now the people's crying Mercy
[00:12.88]But the whole world is now in a strain
[00:15.73]
[00:19.84]Now the people's crying Mercy
[00:22.03]
[00:22.58]But the whole world is now in a strain
[00:25.48]
[00:29.25]I am going to the court house
[00:32.35]And have the judge to change my name
[00:35.11]
[00:39.31]I was out this mornin'
[00:41.19]
[00:42.06]I looked up at the risin' sun
[00:45.04]
[00:48.78]I was out this mornin'
[00:50.82]
[00:51.75]I looked up at the risin' sun
[00:54.71]
[00:58.39]And the strain that I'm in
[01:00.84]It will take me two years to overcome
[01:04.47]
[01:08.13]Now let me tell you boys
[01:10.84]How your friends will treat you
[01:12.19]When you run astray
[01:13.78]
[01:18.20]Now let me tell you boys
[01:20.68]How your friends will treat you
[01:22.18]When you run astray
[01:23.98]
[01:27.51]They won't even come around you
[01:30.13]And call you rather dirty names
[01:33.65]
[02:06.46]I really believe
[02:09.40]I'm going to have to leave this town
[02:12.58]
[02:17.52]I really believe
[02:19.50]I'm going to have to leave this town
[02:22.58]
[02:26.43]Because the strain that I'm in
[02:28.64]
[02:29.74]It is really carryin' me down
[02:32.35]
[02:36.41]I was out this mornin'
[02:39.43]I looked up at the risin' sun
[02:42.94]
[02:47.34]Was out this mornin'
[02:49.26]I looked up at the risin' sun
[02:52.39]
[02:56.30]But now the strain that I'm in
[02:58.39]It will take me two years to overcome
