Story behind the song
This is my "anti-occupy protest" song!
Lyrics
Don’t come knocking at my door
Don’t you come around here no more
Get away now, go back home, get away now leave me alone
Looks like you’ve got something to hide
So many things you don’t realize
Get away now, go back home, get away now leave me alone
Don’t agree with everything you do,
Don’t believe everything you say is true
I paid my dues, I did my best
Ain’t nobody gonna keep me under duress
I’m sick and tired of your demands
Put yourself in my place you’ll understand
Get away now, go back home, get away now leave me alone
If you’re concerned about disparities
Take it up with celebrities
Get away now, go back home, get away now.
Nobody said life was fair!
Life is cruel! Life is cruel!
Don’t agree with everything you do
Don’t believe everything you say is true
I paid my dues, I did my best
Ain’t nobody gonna keep me under duress
Nobody said life was fair!
Life is cruel! Life is cruel!
And if you think people care!
You’re a fool! You’re a fool!
Say you’ve got something new
That’s gonna help me think it through
Get away now, go back home, get away now leave me alone
Things are changing across the land
Time to join the demonstrations at hand
Get away now, go back home, get away now leave me alone
Don’t agree with everything you do
Don’t believe everything you say is true
I paid my dues, I did my best
Ain’t nobody gonna keep me under duress
I paid my dues, I did my best
Ain’t nobody gonna keep me under duress
