Meaningful change - Live at Siphon coffee house
I gave her ten dollars
It didn't make no sense
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
All I got was cheese and bread
Now my money's all spent
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
The landlord says eight hundred is due on the first of each month
But I haven't had any work since the year first begun
I haven't had no work since the first of the year
Now the year is almost done
They say there's a big store somewhere near
Where I can make some change
Work a ten hour shift
You work a ten hour shift
They only pay you for six
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
It didn't make no sense
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
All I got was cheese and bread
Now my money's all spent
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
The landlord says eight hundred is due on the first of each month
But I haven't had any work since the year first begun
I haven't had no work since the first of the year
Now the year is almost done
They say there's a big store somewhere near
Where I can make some change
Work a ten hour shift
You work a ten hour shift
They only pay you for six
Tell me, how in the world's a poor boy supposed to pay the rent?
