paroles de chanson Hard Times (Topsy Turvy) - Cab Calloway

I′m a striver, from up on Striver's Row
And I′m jivin' the very best to know
But hard times got things topsy-turvy

Oh, Lady Luck is the meanest chick in town
I know it 'cause she brought me down
Hard times got things topsy-turvy

You know, once I had lots and lots of money
And I used to dress up so debonair
But now I′m on my uppers
And tough luck may be, but it won′t get in my hair

I'm a striver, from up on Striver′s Row
And I'm jivin′ the very best to know
But hard times got things topsy-turvy

(Instrumental break)

Aw, Jack
I'm sort of beat my chance now, you, so,
You better hit the road
′Cause things are still topsy-turvy
Things are gonna be down on the turf now, Jack
'Cause things are still topsy-turvy
The Great White Way is a little beat
But things are still topsy-turvy
