All around I
hear the sound of money.

but I ain't got

a nickel to my name.
And everywhere I
look I see temptation.
She stands on every corner and

calls my name.
Now won't you tell me if you can.
'eause life's so hard to understand.
Why's the rich man busy danein'.

while the poor man pays the band?
Oh. they're lein' me
for killin' me.

Lerd have mercy

on the working man.
Uncle Sam's got his hands in
my pockets.
And he helps himself each time

he needs a dime.
Them politicians
treat me like a mushroom.
'cause they feed me

bull and keep me in the blind.
Now won't you tell me if you can.
'eause life's so hard to understand.
Why's the rich man busy danein'.

while the poor man pays the band?
Oh. they're bill'm' me.
for killin' me.

Lerd have mercy

on the working man.
Hey St. Peter!

Look down for a minute
and see this little man's

about to drown.
There's quicksand all around
and man I'm in it.
Please help me up Lord. cause I'm

going down.
Won't you tell me if you can.
'eause life's so hard to understand.
Why's the rich man busy danein'

while the poor man pays the band?
Oh. they're bill'm' me.
for killin' me.

Lerd have mercy

on the working man.
Won't you tell me if you can.
'eause life's so hard to understand.
Why's the fat man busy danein'.

while the thin man pays the band?
Oh. they're bill'm' me.
for killin' me.

Dear Lord. have mercy

on the working man.
Please Lord. have mercy

on the werking man.
