Donna Fargo - Society's Got Us lyric
Ringtone: Send Society's Got Us Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
(Donna Fargo)
Society's got us by the you-know-what
We've been livin' way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook
And it's all we can do to get by.
I keep sayin' I'll never bring it up again
But I just can't keep still
Who ever heard of people poor as us
Drive a Cadillac Coupe DeVille.
We wear fancy clothes that we can't anyway afford
Than anything else we do
There outta be a law against living this way
When we need little things like food.
And I'm gonna have to spend my birthday money
To pay the telephone bill
That's what I get for feeling the kind of hopes
I can't afford to fill.
�Cause society's got us by the you-know-what
We're been livin' way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook
And it's all we can do to get by.
And we can't afford this kind of rent
But I know you wouldn't move
And who am I kiddin' I wouldn't either
This is what you call in a groove.
Oh, it's our little way of feelin' big
When you can't be big for real
And we do deserve these material things
We just can't pay the bills.
We're afflicted with a love and high class dreams
And we can't afford to dream
But knowin' all that and doin' somethin' �bout it
Are two different things.
�Cause society's got us by the you-know-what
We're been livin' way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook
And it's all we can do to get by.
Yes, society's got us by the you-know-what
We're been livin' way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook
And it's all we can do to get by.
Yes, society's got us by the you-know-what
We're been livin' way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook
And it's all we can do to get by...
