lyrics
my mother's useless brother came to stay
they said he wadn't no rate
but they'd do the christian thing
let him bed down here till spring
told me stay clear of the man
he ain't worth a damn, worth a damn
he patched up the holes in the barn and then
he fixed a bunch of fence
got blisters on his hands
and came to be my friend
told me never be like him
be worth a damn, worth a damn
he said he spent his younger days
on foolish, foolish things
and now he was payin' for time (all) that was wasted
he left one sunday when we were all at church
on the table a change purse
all the money that he made
workin' nights at the rite-aid
and the memory of a man
who was worth a damn, worth a damn
God sees it in you when no one else can
you're worth a damn, worth a damn
