Now, I been well-warned and I didn't take heed in time
Now, I been well-warned, didn't take heed in time

I done lost my health and gone stone blind

Now I'm 'ant to know your friends when you get down
Now I want to know your friends, you get down (2)
They be always askin' 'bout you, don't never come around

Now, when you lose your eyesight, your best friend gone (3)
Your [?], just people want to fool with you wrong

Now, my mother and my father are both dead and gone (2)
Now, my mother and my father, they both dead and gone
You know they left me 'round here, still stumblin' along

Now, I was standin' on the corner, close 'side the wall (2)
Now, I was standin' on the corner, I was close 'side the wall
