“The Rich People North of Richmond”
I sold my soul, working all day
Overtime for crap money
So I can sit here and waste my life
To drag back home and drown my troubles
It's a damn shame what the planet has come to.
For people like me and people like you
I want I could just wake up and that wouldn't be true.
But it is, oh, it is
Living in a fresh World
With an old soul
These rich people north of Richmond.
You know they all want complete control.
They want to know what you think, they want to know what you're doing.
And they don't think you know, but I know you do.
Because your dollar is crap and it's taxed forever.
Because of rich people north of Richmond.
I want politicians to look after miners.
Not just minors on any island.
Sir, we have men on the street who have nothing to eat.
And fat milking
Well, God, if you're 5 feet minus 3 and you're 300 pounds.
Taxes shouldn't pay for your cattle bags.
Young men enter the ground six feet
Because all this damn country does is kick them.
Lord, it's a damn shame what the planet has come to.
For people like me and people like you
I just want to wake up and that wouldn't be true.
But it is, oh, it is
Living in a fresh World
With an old soul
Those rich guys just north of Richmond.
God knows they all want complete control.
I want to know what you think, I want to know what you're doing and
They don't think you know, but I know you do,
Because your dollar is crap and it's taxed forever.
Because of rich people north of Richmond,
I was selling my soul, working all day
Overtime for bullshit.
