Rich Kid BluesHavin' bad times, now I'm paying duesGot shoes and money, good friends, too I always play to win, and always seem to lose That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues And I know what's going on And I know that the way is too long And I know just exactly what's on your mind You'll be back and I'll lose you forever But I'm wondering why, girl, should I ask your name All the people standing by, are they in my game? Love is just a story, a story without words Words are even never seen and never even heard And I know what's going on And I know that the way is too long And I know just exactly what's on your mind You'll be back and I'll lose you forever Havin' bad times, now I'm paying dues Got shoes and money, good friends, too I always play to win, always seem to lose That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues |
