The Great Society

歌詞

There ain't no place for me in your great society I'd rather be free than to take your charity While livin' it up you're givin' up responsibility And there ain't no place for me in your great society Your old rich uncle died and named you in his will You fell heir to all of his cash and that big house on the hill You climbed that social ladder like a monkey climbs a tree You're the newest rage on the Sunday page in the great society There ain't no place for me in your great society... You heart's down in the basement your head above the roof Your brand new friends are genuine just about a hundred proof You never take a second look at old friends cross the tracks But I knew you when your underwear was made out of flour sacks There ain't no place for me in your great society... And there ain't no place for me in your great society
