Messed Up World Lyrics & Chords By Eddy Clearwater

This is a crazy, mixed-up world
People, it seems like one great big curse
This is a crazy mixed up world today
People, it seems like one great big curse
Things gotta get better real soon
'Cause they can't hardly get much worse

This is a cruel, cruel, cruel world
You have to live in each and every day
This is a cruel, cruel, cruel world
You have to live in each and every day
You can't hardly trust your next door neighbor
Or they just might steal your life away

You know I'm tryin' my best
Just to send my kids to school
But gangs and guns are takin' over
That's why everybody's got the blues
What a cruel, cruel, cruel world
People, it seems like one great big curse
Things gotta get better real soon
'Cause they can't hardly get much worse
