MAN'S GOTTA EAT
As recorded by Logan Halstead
(2023 release)
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
N.C. E A
Out here selling my food stamps
N.C. E
Just to make ends meet
E
All the time I've let slip by
B7
Trying like hell to sleep
E A E
All I've got in this life is a flat top and two left feet
E
No streets of gold cause I've sold my soul
B7 E
But a man's gotta eat
[Interlude]
E A
[Verse 2]
E N.C. A
Come down off my mountain
N.C. E
To a holler of thieves
E
The copper wire that I've acquired
B7
Is laid out at my feet
E A E
Moonshine takes the place of wine and working for dirty deeds
E
If your tap ain't working ma'am
B7 E
I'm sorry a man's gotta eat
[Interlude]
E A E
[Verse 3]
E N.C. E A
Gotta few friends that made it
N.C. E
Most left behind
E
Crushed down in the coal mines
B7
Or OD'ed down the line
E
Livin on pills and welfare
A E
Ain't too bad for me
E
But the oxy's gone away now
B7 E
And a man's gotta eat
[Outro]
E N.C. B7
Said the oxy's gone away now
E
And a man's gotta eat
