Lyrics
Depression Richard Patrick 2010 Well I’m going up on the mountain, to see my baby doll A Hard times a coming, my back against the wall Em I see a lot of poor folk, heading down the road A Looks like they’re hauling, everything they own Chorus (walk up to C) C No rest for the weary That’s all a poor man sees G Work is yer and work is gone C then walk down to A Always on your knees Verse A Em Well we got a great depression, facing us today The banks are getting richer, taking trailers away Well Mr. Politician, hear me when I say Inside the gates of heaven, the rich won’t have their way When they lay my tired old body, down in the grave No more unemployment or begging for my pay
