"Downtrodden Man" lyrics

"Downtrodden Man"

I ain't got nobody to help me when I'm I'll
I ain't got nobody to walk me up this hill
If I had a secret that you could understand
Maybe I wouldn't be such a downtrodden man

Heavy handed work
Steadily been keeping me down
Heavy handed world
Don't want me around

I ain't got nobody, to help me down this road
I ain't got nobody, to tell me which way to go
If I had a secret that you could understand
Maybe I wouldn't be such a downtrodden man

Heavy handed work
Steadily been keeping me down
Heavy handed world, Don't want me around

I do believe that if I had wings
That I'd still be lonesome
Though I fly the river high, fly that river high
Never sold a lie

I ain't got nobody, to help me down this road
I ain't got nobody, to tell me which way to go
If I had a secret that you could understand
Maybe I wouldn't be such a downtrodden man
