Текст песни
No pennies from heaven, no pennies in my hand
You think you're drinking wine, dad, it's blood of the lamb
That's no way to treat your son, now is it Abraham
After he busted his ass for you
You never know no hunger, you never took a risk
Although you know you should, you know you never raised a fist
If the boss says to you to jump, you know you'd find the nearest cliff
That man talks down to you, and you talk down to him too
Now master and slave
In equal parts split down the middle
Drinking doubles at the bar
Now master and slave
God bless you both
I got two for the price of one
Master and slave
In equal parts split down the middle
Drinking doubles at the bar
Now master and slave
God bless you both
I got two for the price of one
Such a deal for your only son
When will this tension be all over
For father's sons and fathers too
I'm down to my last dime
No faith in mankind
Come on let's swing into the groove
Like Jack Horner, wrapped up in a corner
But I never saw a slice of no pie
Ooh, too busy standing in line
Just waiting for bread
But the father, he walks on water
Never toss a nickel to his son
Ain't I your prodigal boy
Ain't I your pride and joy
Friends and Romans, I'm your brother
I'm scratching to hang on
The pursuit of happiness is just a carpetbagger's con
When a can of pork and beans could change my attitude
You won't give it up but I could've been you
While the masters and the slaves scratch for pieces of the dream
For purple mountains majesties whatever the hell that means
They give up on each other and that's the way they get ahead
But I can still see the stars
Through these red, white and blue prison bars
Master and slave
In equal parts split down the middle
Drinking doubles at the bar
Now master and slave
God bless you both
I got two for the price of one
Master and slave
In equal parts split down the middle
Drinking doubles at the bar
Now master and slave
God bless you both
I got two for the price of one
Such a deal for your only son
Master and slave
Master, master and slave
Ooh, master and slave
