Mr. Bankerman

MR. BANKERMAN

CHORUS
Hey Mr. Bankerman-- tell me where my money went
Hey Mr. Bankerman-- tell me where my money went
Got paid last Friday -- today I ain’t got one red cent
[Landlord’s at the door -- And I’m too broke to pay the rent]

VERSE 1 – I need a needle & thread and learn how to sew
‘cause there’s a hole in my pocket where my money goes
If you’re talkin’ ‘bout blues, you know that I got` ‘em
I’m feelin so low I reach up to touch bottom
Hey Mr. Bankerman tell me where my money went?
Hey Mr. Bankerman tell me where my money went?

VERSE 2 – Went to the factory where I used to get paid
Sign on the door said closed for Free Trade
They traded my job for one in Korea
And now I’m free to wash dishes at the Pizzeria
Chorus

VERSE 3 – So I show up at work at the crack of dawn
Breakin my back all day long
Now the bank says they can’t cash my checks any more
Cause my credit’s like whale doo on the ocean floor.
Chorus
