verse 1 A man just came to call for my rent I had to hide under the table Till he knocked six times and went But I can't hold on much longer Seems like everything is down on me verse 2 I used to be a man of means Now you might still find a few pennies in the pocket of my jeans But I can't hold on much longer It seems like everything is down on me Bridge I ain't got too many friends In fact I can't think of any at all Oh but just let me get back on my feet again And my long-lost friends will come to call verse 3 Knocking on my own brother's door People I was knocking for one whole hour till I found out he don't live there no more Lord I can't hold on much longer Seems like everything is down on me Instrumental Bridge I ain't got too many friends If fact I can't think of any at all Oh but just let me get back on my feet again And my long-lost friends will come to call verse 3 Knocking on my own brother's door People I was knocking for one whole hour till I found out he don't live there no more Lord I can't hold on much longer Seems like everything is down on me
