A RICH MAN HEAVEN

A RICH MAN’S HEAVEN
A POOR MAN’S HELL

LISTEN TO ME BROTHERS,
AND MY SISTERS TOO.
LOOK AROUND ALL MY PEOPLE
AND THIS YOU’LL SEE
ALL THE THING S THAT HURTING
YOU AND ME.

THE RICH MAN HAS EVERYTHING
THAT MAKE HIS LIVING NICE
HE CAN DO MOST ANYTHING
AAND NEVER FEEL THE HEAT.

THERE IS NO ONE TO STOP HIM
HE MAKES ALL THE RULES
HE CAN BREAK THEM ANY
TIME HE CHOSE
THE COURTS ARE JUST HIS TOOLS’

WHEN YOU SEE HIM STEALING
HE TELL US NOT SO
HE’S JUST TAKING PROFITS AS THE
RECORDS WILL ALWAYS SHOW.

THIS IS A RICH MAN’S HEAVEN
BUT TO YOU AND ME IT’S A
POOR MANS HELL BUT VERY
SOON THIS WILL NOT BE.
