Lyrics for Screamin' And Cryin'

Screamin' and cryin', thinkin' 'bout my past life to gone Screamin' and cryin', thinkin' 'bout my past life to gone Well you know, I used to have a sweet little mother You know I had such a happy home Screamin' and cryin', thinkin' about the time I've been Screamin' and cryin', thinkin' about the time I've been Well you know, I used to have seven wives Well you know, I had twenty girl friends Screamin' and cryin', wonderin' where my people gone Screamin' and cryin', wonderin' where my people gone Well you know, I feel my poor self sinkin' down Well you know, I can't last very long Screamin' and cryin', wonderin' where my people gone Screamin' and cryin', wonderin' where my people gone Well you know, I feel my poor self sinkin' down Well you know, I can't last very long
