I’m Just A Bum - Big Bill Broonzy – 1935

Il protagonista della canzone puo'essere sia un uomo che una donna.La seconda strofa infatti cita : " I'm just a bum woman " e "Lord,I'm just a poor boy ". E'comunque molto triste, è solo,allontanato da casa dal padre, solo il Signore puo' comprendere la sua drammatica situazione. Vive la sua quotidiana poverta' e solitudine di "homeless" con l'aggravante del colore della sua pelle , motivo per cui tutti lo abbandonano. Da ultimo implora il poliziotto che lo ha fermato di non portarlo via . Tristezza, poverta', abbandono dagli affetti familiari e pregiudizi razziali sono le parole piu' significative di tutta la composizione.
Yeah I'm blue baby
Just as blue, Lord as I can be
Yeah I'm blue baby
Just as blue, Lord as I can be
Lord and ain't nobody know my trouble
But the good Lord and me

I'm just a bum woman
I have to set up all night long
Yeah I'm just a bum woman
I have to set up all night long
Lord I'm just a poor boy
Lord and I ain't got no one

Yeah when my mother died
My dad give poor me'r away
When my mother died
My dad give poor me'r away
Lord I'm just a bum too baby
That's why I ain't got no place to stay

Yes sometime I wonder
Why my dad give poor me'r away
Yes sometime I wonder
Why my dad give poor me'r away
Lord becausе I was dark in complexion
My Lord they all sold me away

Yеah after my mother died
At my home I could not stay
Yeah after my mother died
At my home I could not stay
Lord I'm just a poor bum at your door knockin
Rider please don't drive me away
