Out The Door I Went by John Lee Hooker Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1973

Hey! It's the house rent boogie

I  come home last Friday, tell her I went and lost my job
See  that don't confront me, and so I had my rent next Friday
And next Friday come, I didn't have the rent
And out the door I went

[Humming]

Yea! 

Come  over here now y'all, right towards the street here
Help me get this rent together
Some  give me a nickle and some give me a dime
[?] [movin'?] every night
I can't hold out much longer

Now I got this rent, now let's get together, y'all, let's have a ball

Hey,  hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Oh, boogie!
