Pete Seeger - Empty Pockets Blues Lyrics
Official




I never had a pocket full of money
I never had a ruby red ring
All I ever had was you, babe
To sit and listen to me sing
I've got those blues
Those empty pockets blues

I never had a pocket full of money
I never had a big Cadillac
All I ever had was you, babe
And that's a fact i've got those blues
Those empty pockets blues

Oh, money, money, money, money
When will I make the grade?
I'm so broke that a dollar bill
Looks big as a window shade

Now some say the blues are sorrowful
Some say the blues are sad
But when I sing the blues to you
They come out feeling glad
I've got those blues
Those empty pockets blues
