Papa Charlie Jackson - Four Eleven Forty Four lyrics

I felt so bad the other night Had nothing left but an appetite I looked in my purse, saw I had but a little dough So I decided to play four 'leven forty-four Policy is all I heard all day What good is it if'n you don't know what to play? You think of many numbers you've heard before So always keep playin' four 'leven forty-four The other night, I thought I'd always be broke Four 'leven forty-four made me out of a joke So always keep playing, four eleven forty-four I went to the wheel, they wouldn't let me in I stood on the steps, cried out in the wind "Mr. Man, Mr. Man, please open the door I want to play four eleven forty-four" So policy is all I hear all day What good is it if you don't know what to play? You think of many numbers you've heard before So always keep playin' four eleven forty-four The other night, I thought I'd always be broke Four 'leven forty-four made me out of a joke So always keep playing, four eleven forty-four So while they pulled the numbers, I sat real quiet I felt like things wasn't goin' work right I got nervous, started to go But his last three numbers was four eleven forty-four So policy is all I heard all day What good is it when you don't know what to play? You think of many numbers you've heard before Always keep playin' four eleven forty-four Policy is all I heard all day What good is it if'n you don't know what to play? You think of many numbers you've heard before Always keep playin' four eleven forty-four The other night, I thought I'd always be broke Four 'leven forty-four made me out of a joke So always keep playing, four eleven forty-four So policy is all I hear all day What good is it if you don't know what to play? You think of many numbers you've heard before So always keep playin' four eleven forty-four The other night, I thought I'd always be broke Four 'leven forty-four made me out of a joke So always keep playing, four eleven forty-four
