The Wall Street Blues |
| You bought the pitch |
| The whole nine yards |
| The shiny dream |
| The house of cards |
| But now your dream’s |
| Gone down the drain |
| The house of cards |
| A house of pain |
| They promised riches |
| Over-night |
| They stitched you up |
| It hurts alright |
| They took your money |
| An' your shoes |
| And now you’ve got |
| The Wall Street blues |
| You bought the dream |
| New lamps for old |
| You thought the streets |
| Were paved with gold |
| They filled your hands |
| With tinsel and glitter |
| It tasted sweet |
| But soon turned bitter |
| You took the bait |
| They reeled you in |
| An' now the future’s |
| Lookin' grim |
| They took your money |
| And your shoes |
| And now you’ve got |
| The Wall Street blues |
| They said the market |
| Could never go down |
| They took your savings |
| And then left town |
| They couldn’t have done it |
| Without your greed |
| They only satisfied |
| A need |
| You tried to make |
| An easy buck |
| They pulled the plug |
| And now you’re stuck |
| They took your money |
| And your shoes |
| I guess you’ve got |
| The Wall Street blues |
