Once upon a in the land of plenty The land of lawyers, guns and A little thing we all call greed Brought my hometown down to its
A little bit worried the shape I'm in needs shoes and the wallet's thin Got no gas or But singin' in harmony
Sell me up, me down I be sold out here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my at the corner bar
No block party, everybody's No lights, no runnin' liquids I got no on my credit card And I'm three dates from the prison yard
My credit fallen like the New York Mets There a debt collector that ain't called yet They say, "Money talk, it only swears" And got me in my underwear
Sell me up, me down I be sold out here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't take my seat at the bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
upon a time in America The politicians and fell outta love There was a raping of the man And us sittin' here without no plan
Swimmin' through like Michael Phelps Down and out and can't get no The kids are hungry, peepin' Poodles Pickin' through dumpsters for Ramen
in line with a family to feed Tradin' for Indian beads It's a long time since we felt good Got waitin' on Robin Hood
Sell me up, sell me I be out sittin' here hangin' around my house, take my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my at the corner bar
upon a time in America The politicians went and fell outta was a raping of the common man And left us sittin' without no plan
me up, sell me down I be out sittin' here hangin' around my house, take my car But you can't take my at the corner bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my at the corner bar
