Times has done got hard, work done got scarce Stealing and robbing is taking place Because tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more Tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more And I'm going to grab somebody if I don't make me some dough I'm going to do just like a blind man, stand and beg for change Tell these tricking policemen change my second name Because tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more Tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more And I've got to make no money, I don't care where I go I'm going to learn these walking tricks what it's all about I'm going to get them in my house and ain't going to let them out Because tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more Tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more And I can't make no money, I don't care where I go I got up this morning with the rising Sun Been walking all day and I haven't caught a one Because tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more Tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more And I can't make a dime, I don't care where I go I got up this morning, feeling tough I got to calling my tricks and it's rough, rough, rough Because tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more Tricks ain't walking, tricks ain't walking no more And I have to change my luck if I have to move next door
