Down Through the Years

by Guitar Slim

on The ATCO Sessions (2005), Mojo Working: Blues Guitar Greats (2019)

Now down through the years
You know that man had his trouble
Down through the years, oh
You know man had his woe
Even today
Nothing have changed
Right here and now
'Cause I'm suffering the same

Now when the one you want leave you
It happens so many times
You know even kings and queens, child, oh
They have a suffering mind
I've got my trouble
I'll not complain
'Cause it happened before
And it can happen again

Now suffering is one thing
That can't last always
You know we all will be happy, child, oh
One of these old days
You know I've got my trouble
I'll not complain
'Cause it happened before
And it can happen again
