A            D                 A 
All around I hear the sound of money 
                  E            A 
But I ain't got a nickel to my name 
                 D              A 
And everywhere I look I see temptation 
                    E                   A 
She stands on every corner and calls my name 

              D 
Now won't you tell me if you can 
                A 
Cause life's so hard to understand 
          E 
Why's the rich man busy dancin' 
          A 
While the poor man pays the band 
           D               A 
Oh they're billing me, for killing me 
E                              A 
Lord have mercy on the workin' man 

A               D              A 
Uncle Sam's got his hand in my pockets 
                          E               A 
And he helps himself each time he needs a dime 
                 D               A 
Them politicians treat me like a mushroom 
                            E              A 
Cause they feed me bull and keep me in the blind 

(Repeat Chorus) 

Instrumental  A - D - A 
A             D               A 
Hey St. Peter look down for a minute 
                    E            A 
And see this little man about to drown 
                       D                 A 
There's quicksand all around and man I'm in it 
                  E                    A 
Please help me up Lord cause I'm goin' down 

(Repeat Chorus x2)
