Artist/Band: Jimmy Reed
Lyrics for Song: Over The Hump
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jimmy Reed



Mother had a welfare rent

We lived in a freezin' up house

The only time we saw some meat

Was when we chopped 'em out



Hand me down clothes

Had holes in and out

Now I am a rich man

So happy I could shout



Over the hump, no more bump

Over the hump, no more bump

Now I am a rich man

No more bump for me



I once saw a woman, I thought that I could date

She backed to look at me and asked about my gig

I bought her a sweater, not knowin' what she think

She threw it back at me, now, now I can buy a mink



Over the hump, no more bump

Over the hump, no more bump

Now I am a rich man, no more bump for me



(I hear ya Jimmy)



I was twenty-one, went to buy a beer

The bartender looked at me, an' said "tramp get out-a here"

I took back my money, wiped the sweat from my face

Now I am so angry, I think I'll buy the place



Over the hump, no more bump

Over the hump, no more bump

Now I am a rich man, there's no more bump for me



(I hear ya fine)
