Inflation Blues (2020)

Текст песни Jack McVea - Inflation Blues (2020)

Now listen Mr. President
Congressmen too
You've got me all frustrated
And I don’t know what to do

I've tried to make a dollar
I can't even save a cent
It takes all of my money
Just to eat and pay my rent

[Chorus]
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be

Now that almighty dollar
Why isn't that just in name
No longer is it worth a buck
It's power ain't the same

I’m not one of the wealthy
I can't afford the things I need
I have a lot of meatless days
Which have not been decreed
[Chorus]
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be

About this aid to Europe
Food and all that stuff
Don't think that I'm a fussin'
But ain't we done enough

I wanna be a citizen
Who can shoulder his share
But till you stop inflation
All you ask won't give a care

[Chorus]
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be
I've got those inflation blues
Blue as I can be
