If 10% Is Good Enough For Jesus |
| I pay another man to do my taxes\nOn account of that’s just one more deduction I can take\nBut you know the mailman brought my W-2 this morning\nYeah, and this year they’re taking a third of all I make\nNow I’m just as patriotic as the next man\nAnd you know I love that red white and blue\nSo I’m gonna help to pay this rising cost of freedom\nBut I’ll be danged if I’m gonna change my point of view\n'Cause every time the bureaucrats run out of money\nCongress socks it to the working man\nAnd I don’t think it’s one bit funny\nHow they take so much of my money\nAnd do things with it I don’t understand\nI don’t know why they think they’ve got to squeeze us\nBut I’ll tell you just exactly where I stand\nI believe that ten percent is good enough for Jesus\nWell, it oughta be enough for Uncle Sam\nNow some of these folks that we’ve been sending off to Congress\nThink that all they’ve got to do is just spend and spend, huh\nBut you know you can’t run a family much less a country\nWith more money going out than coming in\nYeah, and that old debt just keeps on getting bigger\nAnd we all gonna have to pay so don’t you laugh\n'Cause pretty soon we might just look down at our paychecks\nAnd figure out that they done started taking half\n'Cause every time the bureaucrats run out of money\nCongress socks it to the working man\nAnd I don’t think it’s one bit funny\nHow they take so much of my money\nAnd do things with it I don’t understand\nI don’t know why they think they’ve got to squeeze us\nBut I’ll tell you just exactly where I stand\nI believe if ten percent is good enough for Jesus\nWell, it oughta be enough for Uncle Sam\nI said, if ten percent is good enough for Jesus\nWell, it oughta be enough\nYou know times are getting tough\nAnd it oughta be enough for Uncle Sam |
