I Don't Want Your Millions, Mister

I don't want your greenback dollar
I don't want your diamond ring
All I want is your love, darling
Won't you take me back again?

I don't want your millions, Mister
I don't want your diamond ring
All I want's just the right to live, Mister
Give me back my job again

I know you have a land deed, Mister
The money is all in your name
But where's the work that you did, Mister
I'm demanding back my job again

Well, I don't want your millions, Mister
I don't want your diamond ring
All I want's just the right to live, Mister
Give me back my job again

Now next time around, y'all really sing on that
It's gonna sound good

We worked to build this country, Mister
While you enjoyed a life of ease
You've stolen all that we built, Mister
Now our children starve and freeze
Right on one

I don't want your millions, Mister (I don't want your-)
I don't want your diamond ring (all I want)
All I want's just the right to live, Mister (give me back)
Give me back my job again

I don't want your Rolls-Royce, Mister
I don't want your pleasure yacht
All I want's just food for my babies
Give to me my old job back

Well, I don't want your millions, Mister (diamond ring)
I don't want your diamond ring (all I want)
All I want is the right to live, Mister (give me back)
Give me back my job again
Oh, sing it again, now

I don't want your millions, Mister
Oh, I don't want your diamond ring
All I want is just the right to live, Mister
Give me back my job again
