Lyrics

This is called The Git Go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way Woman shined the apple, and the man had to take a bite Anything that good, God knows, just had to be right Well they woke up naked with a bit headache He been done in by a slippery snake A man and a woman get to live a while and then they die It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way Politicians make promises that they can't keep They keep printin' money 'til they get in way too deep It's the same old lesson, they never learn They're too busy workin' on their next term Politicians keep makin' fools out of you and me It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way Money breeds war, as long as there's a man alive Rich kids go to college, and the poor kids fight High-rollers crap out e'ry time, roll a soldier's bones like loaded dice War is the beast that makes e'ry mother cry It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way He told the truth, and they hung him up to die The son of God who created you and I He said it in the Good Book and letters in red But we keep on forgettin' e'ry word he said Jesus Christ hung on the cross for you and I It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go It's been that way since the git go Lord, it's always been that way Thanks a lot
