[verse 1]
Well I woke up this morning,
didn't have a morsel to eat,
Lord, things are tight
Didn't have a pair of shoes,
to put on me feet,
Lord, things are tight
But if I call on you Lord,
you will make it right,
Lord, things are tight
Yes if I call on you Lord,
you will make it right,
Lord, things are tight.
Well I lost my woman yesterday,
had me drunk all night,
Lord things are tight
Money gone, friends gone,
not cent one,
Lord things are tight
They've come and seize me furniture,
cut off water and light,
Lord things are tight
But I don't want no trouble
and I don't want no fight,
Lord things are tight.
But if I call on you Lord,
you will make it right,
Lord things are tight
My bills are getting bigger
and my pocket's feeling light
Lord things are tight
But if I call on you Lord
you will make it right
Lord things are tight
Yes if I call on you Lord, [etc.]
[repeat verse 1]
