Work Like A Horse/drink Like A Fish Lyrics

Atom Ellis)

Take a little from the big man

Take a little from the sky

Take a little from the big man

Just enough to get by on

For the fear of God and broken laws

I've remained a broken man

It's tough to see when I walk down the street

People eating from a garbage can

Hey, you, on the other side

This river is getting wider

Hey, now, when the money's spent

We can't feed our habits on rhetoric

And the people singing, "There ain't no winning

Work like a horse, drink like a fish."

Had a talk with your mama last night

Had a talk with my mama last nightPsychefunkapus - Work Like A Horse/drink Like A Fish - http://motolyrics.com/psychefunkapus/work-like-a-horse-drink-like-a-fish-lyrics.html

She said, "Eat, my darling, make yourself alright."

And the people singing, "There ain't no winning

Work like a horse, drink like a fish."

This river is getting wider

This river is getting higher too

Hey, you, on the other side

This river is getting wider

Hey, now, when the money's spent

We can't feed our babies on rhetoric

Hey, you on the other side

This river is getting wider

Hey, Mr. President

We can't feed our babies on rhetoric

And the people singing, "There ain't no winning,

Work like a horse, drink like a fish."
