We work too hard
Trying to make it pay
We’ve been working so hard
Every single day
Building it up
Just to knock it down
For some big wig
Who owns half the town
I’m not saying it’s right
But something smells funny
When those who do the least
Get most of the money
If I was the man
Would I share it out
Give a little greenback love
Spread it all about
Once you gotta roof
Milk and bread in the fridge
A good woman by your side
That’s all you need to live
If you can dance and sing
With your friends and share a drink
Take your kids to the park
That’s a life don’t you think
