Nickeltree - Constitution Blues Lyrics



Nickeltree - Constitution Blues Lyrics




Every day I wake up
Shake the cobwebs from my brain
Bin sleeping on cold concrete
And it ain't no gravy train But if you ain't got the patience
Dedication and ambition
You're never gonna make it
Doin' nothin' for a living

I'm a sell-made man From no institution
Everyday I'm living by my own constitution
You don't need no money
When you're livin' on the street
You just ask some rich sucker
For something good to eat
If he don't like your business And he won't give you the time
Tell him It's me or just another like me
Standin' next in line Well I don't pay no taxes
And I ain't got no address I walk four blocks uphill both ways
Just to pick up all my cheques
And if you think I sound pretentious
Conceited or vain Then spend a day with me my friend
You'll never work again
