Buffy Sainte-Marie - Running For The Drum

Working For The Government

The neighbors like him
Think he's a great guy
He wears a neck tie
Workin for the government

He get you elected
He take the heat y'all
He know the plan yeah he's
Workin for the government

Ci-vil servant y'all

He keep a place in town he
Workin for the government

He keep his mouth shut
Nobody know him
He G.I. Joe yeah
Workin for the government

Love come around
He never feel a thing
He see right through it all he
Workin for the government

High places Low places

Mis-ter Invisible he
Workin for the government

Hot war Cold war

It's all the same to him he
Workin for the government

Gun for hire y'all
Mercenary 101 he
Workin for the government

He's a pro-fessional

He come from nowhere he
Workin for the government

Up town down town
Anywhere the chips come down he
Your town my town he
Workin for the government
