chris rodrigues - mr. man lyrics

Loading...

my momma worked hard
she worked hard for herself
cleaning up big houses
keeping dust up off the shelves

she never made much more
than enough to keep afloat
she kept our heads above the water
with a hole in our boat

i got me a job
the only job that i could find
at a cabin rental business
we had in the pines

five dollars an hour
all the money that i earned
and the rich get rich
by stepping on the poor was what i learned

[chorus]
well, maybe i’m dirt
it hurts to get stepped on
spit in the face
drug to the ground
and as much as it hurts
i’ve always kept on
strong as a rock
when i’m getting kicked around

i come from a family
that was full of mounted men [?]
and i went in to the city
and i got robbed with a pen

he was a smooth talking snake
slithered out of new york town
if i had known that he was rotten
i would had cut him down

he worked my fingers to the bone
and i never saw a cent
and now i’ve got nothing to show
for all, that’s how must been

and evil rules the world
and soon we all get burn’d
and the rich get rich
by stepping on the poor was what i learned

[chorus]

i’ve made it over that mountain
i have crossed the deep blue sea
and i stepped out of the wilderness
when jesus set me free

and i would not make it out of life
if it wasn’t for the lord
and the rich keep getting rich
by stepping on the poor

[chorus 2x]
