Gettin' Richer Blues

from Ain't Enough by Robert Connely Farr

/

lyrics

ain't no hope
ain't no god
ain't no more excuses
so what you got

ain't not truth
ain't no lies
ain't no hope my lord
only more advice
take a look around
tell me what you see
just a bunch of hard timing motherfuckers
like you and me

the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder

life is long
life is hard
it ain't called the Dirty South for nothing
its too hot down here for my Lord

the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder

the rich are gettin richer
the poor are gettin poorer
I ain't gettin younger and
I'm looking over my shoulder
oh my God
