God Help Me

Lyrics

My coat's old, but it's got a good lining Round the cuffs it's started to fray Found a hole in the back of my pocket Must 'a' lost my money that way Oh, God help me it's started to rain Oh, God help me I'm feeling the strain I came down from the back of Virginia Got in a brawl in a dirty saloon Big fella said "I thought I'd seen ya With my lady looking up at the moon." Oh, God help me it's started to rain Oh, God help me I'm feeling the strain I got a degree in philosophy at the University of Birmingham Then I shaved my face, got sick of the pace, so I quit the race I couldn't give a damn My shoes leak, my feet are dirty My back aches and my head is sore Got mixed up with a gal named Gurty It's all I could to reach the door Oh, God help me it's started to rain Oh, God help me I'm feeling the strain INSTRUMENTAL Got a degree in philosophy at the University of Birmingham Then I shaved my face, got sick of the pace, so I quit the race I couldn't give a damn My shoes leak, my feet are dirty My back aches and my head is sore Got mixed up with a gal named Gurty It's all I could to reach the door Oh, God help me it's started to rain Oh, God help me I'm feeling the strain Oh, God help me it's started to rain Oh, God help me I'm feeling the strain (Repeat and fade)
