Lyrics
We've taken all you've given
But it's gettin' hard to make a livin'
Mr. President have pity on the working man
We ain't asking you to love us
You may place yourself high above us
Mr. President have pity on the working man
I know it may sound funny
But people everywhere are runnin' out of money
We just can't make it by ourself
It is cold and the wind is blowing
We need something to keep us going
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Maybe you've cheated
Maybe you've lied
Maybe you have finally lost your mind
Maybe you're only thinking 'bout yourself
Too late to run, too late to cry now
The time has come for us to say good-bye now
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Mr. President have pity on the working man
