Clarence Carter – The Few Troubles I’ve HadRé-do La-Ré--Do Mi-Ré Do Mi--Ré!Ré-do La-Ré--Do Mi-Ré Do Mi--Sol-Sol!Now some of y’all I know I told this story to beforeBut to all of you that I never got a chance to tell it toI want to tell you something that happened to me back in January of 1964Well you see, I was sitting down in my house in Montgomery, AlabamaAnd I got a letter in the mail,The man told me that if I didn’t have my rent in the office by five o’clockI was gonna have to get outdoorsI’m just going to tell you all about the few troubles I’ve had, that’s all The paper boy came in and he brought me my morning paperAnd I took it and went inside to take a look at the headlinesAnd you know when I turned on my lamp I found the man just turned my electricity off?!Ha-ha, ha-ha! I was just going to tell you all about the few troubles I’ve had, that’s allLate upon the evening it was beginning to get a little cold outsideI went ahead and light my heater. And that’s when I found out the man then turned my gas off too!Ha-ha children, let me tell you about the few troubles I hadThe only girl I ever loved in my whole life called me on the telephoneShe said Clarence, lend me tomorrow five dollarsYou know I didn’t have but fifty cents to my name, Even a hole in it, so she put me downOh children, let me tell you about the few troubles I hadYou know, I didn’t have but two eggs in my house to eat for my breakfast the next morningThe old cat jumped upon the table and knocked them off and now they’re goneOh children, much troubles came that daySo I just got down my old guitar and decided to sing myself a songI wanted to sing something children that was going to satisfy my soulSo while I was sitting there, thinking about all my troubles, Words like these came to my mindI said Lord, why did you make me, yeah, why? I gotta laugh, and I gotta cryI gotta live, oh I gotta dieI just, I just keep, I just keep having my troubles y’all Oh when your troubles come,It seems like they come home…Transcription - Dossevi Trenou - March 3rd 2018

I've always loved his singing; and have purchased many of Clarence Carters' 45rpms, and wore them out;  but is just hearing of this song for the first time.  Interesting.

It's shame this was never re-issues a million times.... together with its B-Side "Take it off him & leave it on me". I am just so glad I digitized all my 45s and LPs.

Just discovered this yesterday. Not a fan of this artist in the past, not even now so much...but the accompaniment is so amazing. I LOVE the piano and horns. Gorgeous. Don't like the talking too much...but when he sings the final bit, I am totally undone.

My favorite song. I translated it into Japanese.この中の 三人(みたり)四人(よたり)に 語りしか 皆には未(いま)だ 折りなくて 言わず置きにし 言の葉を 語らばや今 その昔 ふるさとに居し 時のこと 家主に銭を 日のうちに 払はずはすぐ 追ひ出さむと おどされにけり いささかの 我が憂き目をば 語らはむ そればかりぞよ 朝まだき ほのぐらき時 物見むと 油をさがせば しこ家主 計らひぬらし いつしかも 盗まれにけり いささかの 我が憂き目をば 語らはむ そればかりぞよ 夕さりて 冷えゆく風に 火たかむと 薪をさがせば しこ家主 計らひぬらし いつしかも 盗まれにけり いささかの 我が憂き目をば 語らはむ そればかりぞよ この世にて ただ一人のみ 思へりし 我妹子(わぎもこ)よりぞ 文(ふみ)ありし そに言ふことは 銭わずか しばし借らむと されど我れ わづかだになし されば妹(いも) 我(わ)を捨ててけり いささかの 我が憂き目をば 語らはむ そればかりぞよ 次の朝 我れに残るは ただ二つ 卵ばかりぞ 他は無き その卵をば 古き猫 踏みつぶしゆき 今は無し 我が憂き目ども その日にぞ 集まりにける さてされば 琵琶取り出(いだ)し 我がために 歌うたはむと 思ひけり 我が魂を なぐさむる ことをばせむと そこに居て すべての憂き目に 思ひ入る うちに言の葉 我が胸に 浮かび来たりぬ 次のごとかく「天(あま)つ神 何しかも我(わ)を 人にせし 笑ひ泣き生き 死ぬべき人に」
