So you can see we're back into this same ol' mess. Seems like every time we get out of one situation, we're back into it all over again.
All you people in Washington. You better get it together, or we won't get it done. We sit by while you cuss and fuss, but guess who's suffering - nobody but us.
Now we're a dedicated people, and we do our job. But the harder we work - the gettin' goes hard to be 'One for all, and all for one' But it's harder to get when you can't have fun.
Heyyyyyy, ya talkin' out the side of your neck! Heyyyyyy, you gonna get what's coming to you yet!
Now you carry the weight, but we carry the vote. And that's big fair, so stop-a-rockin' the boat You think you get away with political crimes But don't take us for granted. Just get on our minds.
Now some of the people some of the time, but not all of your people all of the time. Tricky Dick, Ford too, Jimmy Mack Carter, Ronnie Regan too
Heyyyyyy, ya talkin' out the side of your neck! Heyyyyyy, you gonna get what's coming to you yet!
