First day of school ain't got no shoes

Never too poor to sing the Natchitoches blues 
D
Five growin' boys in a shotgun house 
D                    A         G/B
Way down deep in the Louisiana south 


D
Natchitoches blues, Natchitoches blues
D                          A            G/B

First day of school ain't got no shoes momma couldn't help with... 


D
Sherriff come knockin' on our front door 
D                         A         G/B

D
Gun and woman in a motel room 
D                        A            G/B
Daddy went down with the Natchitoches blues 


D
Natchitoches blues, Natchitoches blues 
D                        A            G/B

D
Yeah the old Cane River and the shufflin' feet

Dancin' to the band down on Front Street

Barely gettin' by got the Natchitoches blues, got the Natchitoches blues


D
Scored me a job workin' at Sinclaire's 
D                       A       G/B
I was pumpin' gas I was pumpin' air 
D
I worked for free for a year or two 
D                                 A            G/B
Yeah hardly gettin' paid, got the Natchitoches blues


D
Mickey got popped for stealin' cars 
D                             A    G/B
I scored a second job workin' at K-mart 
D
Jimmy moved away and Danny did too tryin' to out run 'em...


D
Brother David died young but he had a good heart 
D                        A       G/B
Seein' Momma cry was the hardest part 
D
Buryin' your babies ain't easy to do 
D                                  A            G/B
You can still hear 'em moanin' the Natchitoches blues 


D
They sing Natchitoches blues Natchitoches blues, 
D                          A            G/B
Still hear 'em moanin' the Natchitoches blues 
D
First day of school ain't got no schoes, 
D                               A            G/B
momma couldn't help me with the Natchitoches blues


D
Natchitoches blues, Natchitoches blues
D                          A            G/B
Never too poor to sing the Natchitoches blues (x4)


*I'm not 100% on the lyrics but they're close. Also, it sounds like he 
peppers in some Dsus4 on the D especially when the song slows down a little
