Rich Men North Of Richmond lyrics
[ verse 1]
I sell my soul, I work all day
Overtime hours for crap pay
So I can sit here and waste my life away
Drag me back home and drown my troubles away
[Pre-chorus]
It's a damn shame what the world has gotten itself into
For people like me and for people like you
I wish I could wake up and it wasn't true
But it is, oh, it is
[Chorus]
Living in a new world
With an old soul
These wealthy men north of Richmond
God knows everyone wants to be in complete control
Want to know what you think, want to know what you're doing
And they think you don't know, but I know you do
Because your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
Because of the rich men north of Richmond
Rich Men North Of Richmond lyrics
[verse 2]
I wish the politicians would watch out for the miners
And not just minors somewhere on an island
Sir, we have people on the street, we have nothing to eat
And obese milking bliss
Well, gosh, if you're five foot three and weigh three hundred pounds
Taxes shouldn't pay for your bags of Fudge Rounds
Young men put themselves six feet into the ground
Because all this damn country does is keep bringing them down
[Pre-chorus]
Lord, it's a damn shame what the world has come to
For people like me and for people like you
I wish I could wake up and it wasn't true
But it is, oh, it is
[Chorus]
Living in a new world
With an old soul
These wealthy men north of Richmond
God knows everyone wants to be in complete control
Want to know what you think, want to know what you're doing
And they think you don't know, but I know you do
Because your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
Because of the rich men north of Richmond
[Outro]
I sell my soul, I work all day
Overtime hours for crap pay
