Mr. Welfare Man

 

Mr. Welfare Man

(album: Claudine - 1974)


(Keep away from me, Mr. Welfare)
They just keep on saying I'm a lazy women
Don't love my children and I'm mentally unfit
I must divorce him, cut all my ties with him
Cuz his ways they make me say
It's a hard sacrifice (hard sacrifice)
Not having me a loving man
Society gave us no choice
Tried to silence my voice
Pushing me on the welfare (on the welfare)
I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying to prove my equal rights
Though I've made some mistakes for goodness sakes
Why should they help mess up my life?

Ooh, So keep away from me, Mr. Welfare
Did you hear me? Keep away from me, Mr. Welfare
Holding me back, using your tact
To make me live against my will (hard sacrifice)
If that's how it goes child, I don't know
I can't concede my life's for real
It's like a private eye for the FBI
Just as envious as the Klu Klux Klan
Though I'm of pleasant fate it's hard to relate
I'll do the very best I can

Ooh, so keep away from me, ooh ooh Mr. Welfare
No no, did you hear me? Don't come near me
(Keep away from me) Stay away, Mr. Welfare
They keep on saying I'm a lazy women
Don't love my children and I'm mentally unfit
I must divorce him, cut all my ties with him
Cuz his ways they make me say
Ooh, It's a hard sacrifice. No no no Lordy
Mr. Welfare, stay away Mr. Welfare
I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying to prove my equal rights
Though I've made some mistakes for goodness sakes
Why should they help mess up my life?

Whoo whoo so keep away from me, ooh ooh Mr. Welfare
Don't you hear me? (Keep away from me)
Stay away Mr. Welfare
They keep on saying I'm a lazy women
Don't love my children and I'm mentally unfit
I must just divorce the man, cut all my ties with him
Cuz his ways they make me say
Oooooooo, it's a sacrifice (hard sacrifice)
I gotta testify (hard sacrifice)
Mr. Welfare, Mr. Welfare (hard sacrifice, hard sacrifice)
I'm so tired, I'm so tired (hard sacrifice)
I'm so tired of trying to prove my equal rights
Though I've made some mistakes for goodness sakes
Why should they help mess up my life?

Whoo whoo whoo keep away from me, Mr. Welfare
Did you hear me? Keep away from me, ooh Mr. Welfare
They keep saying I'm a lazy women
Don't love my children and I'm mentally unfit
I must divorce him, cut all my ties with him
'Cuz his ways they make me say
It's a hard sacrifice. I just want to testify
Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy
Um hmmm, keep away from me
Get on, get on, keep away from me, move on, Mr. Welfare
Keep away from me

Fatto
