"Don't Drive Me From Your Door (1930)" Lyrics

/ 5
Song updated, review now!
Just look how it's rainin', my feet 's on the ground.
Just look how it's rainin', and my poor feet 's on the ground.
For the woman I've made happy, when she's after every man in town.

Friends, please open your door, and don't drive me away.
Please open your door, and don't drive me away.
The rent man has put me outdoors, and I've got no place to stay.

Let me stay here tonight, it's ice all on the ground.
Let me stay here tonight, it's ice all over the ground.
'Cause I'm motherless and I'm fatherless, and please don't turn me down.

When I had plenty money, I had friends all over town.
When I had plenty of money, I had friends all over town.
But just as soon as I got outdoors, none of my friends could be found.

After mother an' father 's gone, a dollar 's your right hand friend.
After mother an' father 's gone, dollar 's your right hand friend.
Then after your last dollar 's gone, you're like a road that has no end.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, lord where will I go?
I'm beggin' you my friend, don't drive me from your door.
I cannot sleep on the ground, there's nothin' but ice and snow.
