It's Getting So You Can't Trust Nobody
Version 1 is a live recording, performed solo with acoustic guitar during a concert in Northern Ireland
|
Version 2 is the same recording as version 1, but edited
Note that on the second sampler, the start point is slightly different such that we hear the whole word 'decieves' |

lyrics version 1
Getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
The more you trust them the more you'll find
They just grieves you and deceives you 'til you lose your mind
Turn your back a minute
An' you see what you lose
They'll steal the feet right outta your shoes
It's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
Oh ow pa pow pa da ow ETC
Well a dark brown lady sang a tale o' woe
I said a tale of woe and it went just so
I loved a man clear to his bones
Was a man name a' Abraham Lincoln Jones
They caught him lying and he broke his vow
And I can't put faith in nobody now
Oh it's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
The more you trust them the more you'll find
They just grieves you and deceives you 'til you lose your mind
He took his part and his share
But yeah what is true
Is that he took my rent right along with him too
Well it's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
The more you trust them the more you'll find
They just grieves you and deceives you 'til you lose your mind
Turn your back a minute
An' you see what you lose
They'll steal the feet right outta your shoes
It's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
Oh ow pa pow pa da ow ETC
Well a dark brown lady sang a tale o' woe
I said a tale of woe and it went just so
I loved a man clear to his bones
Was a man name a' Abraham Lincoln Jones
They caught him lying and he broke his vow
And I can't put faith in nobody now
Oh it's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
The more you trust them the more you'll find
They just grieves you and deceives you 'til you lose your mind
He took his part and his share
But yeah what is true
Is that he took my rent right along with him too
Well it's getting so you can't trust nobody none of the time
