Rich Men North Of Richmond Lyrics
I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for
Overtime hours for
bullshit pay
So I can sit out here and waste
my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame what the
Drag back home and drown my troubles away
It's a damn shame what the
world's gotten to
For people like me and people
For people like me and people
like you
Wish I could just wake
Wish I could just wake
up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world,With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world,With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shit
and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
Lord, it's a damn shame
Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
Lord, it's a damn shame
what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people
For people like me and people
like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world,With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world,With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna

And they don't think you know, but I
And they don't think you know, but I
