Unemployment Stomp 
Unemployment Stomp (Big Bill Broonzy) 
I'm a law abiding citizen, and my debts I sure will pay, I'm a law abiding citizen, and my debts I sure will pay. I hope war don't start and Uncle Sam have to send me away. 
I haven't never been in jail, and I haven't never paid no fine, baby, I wants a job to make my livin', cause stealin' ain't on my line. 
I've knowed a time when I have raised my own meat and meal, My meat was in my smokehouse, and my meal was in my field. 
When Mr. Roosevelt sent out those unemployment cards, I just knowed sure that work was goin'to start. 
Broke up my home 'cause I didn't have no work to do, My wife had to leave me' cause she was starvin' too.
