Not sure which song you're quoting from, but it's referencing this Woody Guthrie song. I'm mostly familiar with it via Nanci Griffith's excellent cover on Other Voices, Other Rooms, and I had forgotten that Woody Guthrie wrote it. Thanks.

Been listening to Humble Pie recently. Underrated band. Steve Marriot was one of the best voices in rock. That lyric is from "Black Coffee" https://youtu.be/2tNoSmlnxwQ?feature=shared
