Dirty Laundry lyrics

by

Curtis Mayfield


Dirty laundry
In the country
Can't trust Uncle Sam
Broken link
Future sinkin'
And no one gives a damn

I learned to count
But I found out
There is no balanced scale
People know
I think we know
For some its living hell

Dirty laundry
In the country
Can't trust Uncle Sam
Broken link
Future sinkin'
And no one gives a damn

No working day
No weekly pay
Can't even feed my kid
For broken folk
No antidote
While others get so fat
Think I'll call my lord tonight
And ask ask him how he'll see
This good old world to be
And if I read my Bible right
And search for better time
Don't wanna do no crime
But times are kinda slow
But the better days gotta show
And everybody know
Dirty laundry
In the country
Can't trust Uncle Sam
Broken link
Future sinkin'
And no one gives a damn

The dollar bill
You think is real huh
Spends to buy you nothing
For broken folk
No antidote
Just trying to get me something
Think I'll call my lord tonight
And ask him he he see
This good old world to be
And if I read my Bible right
But times are kinda slow
But better days gotta show
And everybody know

Dirty laundry
In the country
Can't trust Uncle Sam
Broken link
Future sinkin'
And no one gives a damn
People hustle
And preach the gospel
Too many words to hear
No working day
No weekly pay
The old folks live in fear

Dirty laundry
In the country
Dirty laundry
In the country
Dirty laundry
In the country
Dirty laundry
In the country
