Verse 1
That he'd been,
an old man told me what he'd found
Said it don't make no difference
whether you're
Out or whether you're in,
though the world keeps

Goin' round and round.
Verse 2
of the faces that he'd seen
Then he turned the pictures upside down.
Said it don't make no difference
how many places you've been
Said the world keeps goin' round

Verse 3

Then he put up the pictures shook his head,
and with a grin,

Verse 4
don't you pull no Daisy Mae on me
Daisy Mae she did me dirty,
so I had to leave her for
Anna Lee. Anna Lee she
had big street feet.
Verse 5
She spent her nights out on the row
Em
So I started seeing Sally Jackson,
I had to let Anna Lee go
Sally Jackson was a player
Had another man along with me
So I just took me one step backwards
Checked up on old Anna Lee
Anna Lee still had them street feet
Liked to dance all night and sleep all day
So I just took one more
step backwards,
checked up on old Daisy Mae
Daisy Mae was still doin' dirty,
so I'll tell you what I had to do
Had to go just one step further
Betty Joe Johnson

the faces in life he'd seen
Then he turned the pictures upside down
Said it don't make no difference how
many places that you've been
Said the world keeps goin'
