Pauper

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can't afford a steak

I can't afford to drive a Lincoln

I can't afford to smoke

I can't afford this beer I'm drinking

Well, I'll never see

Well, I'll never see

Well, I'll never see a single dollar

'Cause I'll never be

I'll never be

I'll never wear a starched white collar

Just leave it up to me

I've got a gun

Just leave it up to me, oh, oh

Get down, put your hands on your head

Turn around, put the cash in the back, Jack, yeah

Well, it don't matter what you call it

Just give me your wallet, shut the fuck up

I'm not a criminal but

With these cops I might as well be

I've got my wheels, I've got a gun

I think you kinda underestimate me

Well, I'll never see

Well, I'll never see

Well, I'll never see a single dollar

'Cause I'll never be

I'll never be

I'll never wear a starched white collar

Just leave it up to me

I've got a gun

Just leave it up to me, oh, oh

Get down, put your hands on your head

Turn around, put the cash in your back, Jack, yeah

Well, it don't matter what you call it

Just give me your wallet, shut the fuck up

I never be

I never be

I never see

I never see

I never see

I never be

You, you beat me down and take from me, you liar

You chain me up and feed me to the fire

A badge, a gun, a radio, a donut

I'm not gonna take it anymore, more

Ah-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha

All your freedom resides in the dollar

Lack of dollar results in the collar

All you people are feeding the whore

Hear her screaming for more

Get down, put your hands on your head

Turn around, put the cash in the back, Jack, yeah

Well, it don't matter what you call it

Just give me your wallet, shut the fuck up

I never be

I never be

I never see

I never see

I never see

I never be
