Now as I look around, it's mighty plain to see This world is such a great and a funny place to be Oh, the gamblin' man is rich an' the workin' man is poor And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

“I Ain’t Got No Home In This World Anymore” was written by Woody Guthrie in 1938 and appears on his 1940 album, Dust Bowl Ballads.
This was Guthrie’s first commercial recording and the most successful album he made. It’s now considered one of the first concept albums.
Dust Bowl Ballads was originally released as two three-disc collections of 78 rpm records.
