[Verse 1]
Em    C      D  G
Never had no biscuit
Em    C      D          G
Never had no sweater to wear
   Em               D
To keep me from the cold


[Verse 2]
Em    C    D G
Never no potato
Em    C      D             G
Never had no leather on my feet
     C                G
‘Til I was five years old


[Bridge]
D7
When I was a baby my mama said
  G                            C
I never had no food to keep me full
      G                            C
And I never had no sweater made of wool
    G                                   C      D
And that went and made my daddy have to pull a job
N.C.
Which means he had to rob


[Verse 3]
    Em   C               D  G
But now, though I have a biscuit
Em      C    D          G
And I have a sweater to wear
   C                D
To keep me from the cold


[Verse 4]
   G            C
My mammy she is crying
          G           C
‘Cause my daddy he is lying
        G
With no biscuit and no sweater
       Em         D
On the cold stone floor
N.C.     G         D
While my mammy and me
                          G     C  G
We don’t want for nothing more
