Tampa Red - Poor Old Gal Blues

I met a poor old girl
She was sleepin' on the floor
I met a poor old girl
She was sleepin' on the floor
She said a man that she was lovin'
Did not pet her nomore

She was so disgusted
Her heart's all full of pain
She was so disgusted
Her heart's all full of pain
As I sit there talkin' to her
Her tears fell like drops o' rain

She said she was motherless and fatherless
Sisterless and brotherless too
She said she was motherless and fatherless
Sisterless and brotherless too
Said she did not have no home
And her friends were still a few

She was so'r unhappy
Drove from door to door
She was so'r unhappy
Drove from door to door
She said she felt like bleedin'
But she had no place to go
Well I sat there a-thinkin'
Nothing else that I could do
Well I just sat there a-thinkin'
Nothing else that I could do
So I sat there a-wheezin'
Cause I have that poor gal too
