lyrics

Little by little
Inch by inch
I’ve got to tighten up my belt, got to give that baby a cinch
Got a foot on the road
One in the ditch
Got a mean ol’ Uncle Sam, he’s a son of a bitch

Was there ever a moment
Was there ever a time
When there wasn’t Big Brother justa shaking out your last dime?
Tax the poor
We’ve got to feed the rich
We’ve got a mean ol’ Uncle Sam, he’s a son of a bitch

Well there’s a healthy crop of people who are confident in what they believe
And a magician in the corner with a lot of tricks left up his sleeve
You could let me spin a yarn but I’ve got another basket to weave
So maybe I’ll leave

The decisions to the powerful, the rich or the blind
Every one that they make will only take us further behind
The rest of the world
Without a hitch
‘Cause that mean ol’ Uncle Sam is a son of a bitch
