Red Letter Blues

We got no more money for you now.
We got no money for you now.
It ain’t your concern or your fault,
your just a man doing in his job.
Still, we got to money for you now.
We got to money for you now.

Remember they used to try to hide a lie?
Remember they used to try to hide a lie?
Clear to our red eyes,
written in black in white.
Still, we got no money for you now.
We got no money for you now.

Another red letter through the door.
Another red letter through the door.
Can’t rest the weary eyes.
Working morning through the night.
And we can't get along this way
Can't get along this way.

They put one of their cronies in the chair.
They put one of their cronies in the chair.
They set the table, and we made the bed.
With a hand on the bible he did swear.
They put one of their cronies in the chair.

Remember they used to try to hide a lie.
Remember they used to try to hide a lie.
Clear to our red eyes.
Written in black in white.
Still, we got no money for you now.
We got no money for you now.

We’ve got no money for you now.
We’ve got no money for you now.
It ain’t your concern or fault,
you’re just a man doing his job.
Still, we got no money for you now.
We got no money for you now.
