That's What I Want to Hear

No I don't have the time to spare
You know I'll put my money down

And you say when you want to get your family some food

Let me tell you what it's all about
And you tell me that you don't have nothing to do
So you tell me that your last good dollar is gone
Good buddy that's what I want to hear
And your belly is growing lean
By a big ol' greasy machine
And if you're still wondering what I'm trying to say
And you tell me that your clothes are tattered and torn
Brother that's all you need to know
No I don't have the time to spare
He's standing there by your side
And you say that your pockets are bare
So if you're looking for an answer
And you tell me that your job was taken away
Now don't tell me your troubles

If you don't have nothing to say

But if you want to get together and fight
Now if I had the jobs to give
You've got a hand and a voice and you're not alone
You gotta stand in a relief line
That you've got no place to go
And you'll never really know how far you'll go
But if you want to get together and fight
Now don't tell me your troubles
Oh, but every bad thing that's happened to you
But when you decide not to take no more
Now it's a sin and a bloody shame
You know I'd give them all a way
Now nobody listens to a single man

'Til you join together and try
Has happened to better men

So don't explain that you've lost your way
And nobody seems to care
'Cause I've seen your kind many times before
And you keep on wasting your time
When he's walkin' 'round down and out

And you tell me that your clothes are tattered and torn

And you tell me that you don't collect no more pay
And nobody seems to care
But don't waste your breath calling out my name
And I'll see 'em many times again
'Bout the way they're pushing you 'round
