The Welfare Turns It's Back On You

(앨범: It's Too Bad Things Are Going So Tough - 1969)

Now what you gonna do, when the welfare turn its back on you?
Yeah what you gonna do, when the welfare turn its back on you
Yeah, you be standing there stranded, there's ain't a thing that you can do

Now you look all through your house, yes, you can't find a piece of bread
Yeah you look all through your house, yeah, you can't find a piece of bread
Sometime you begin to wonder, if you be better off dead

You go down to the welfare
Ev'ry month a report
An' some of the thing they selling you
Will surely get your goat

If you tell 'em you sick
You better have a bad cough
Because if you don't
They be ready to throw you off

What you gonna do, when the welfare turns its back on you?
Yeah you be standing there stranded
Yeah there ain't a thing that you can do
