TIRED OF BEING POOR
Craig Sofaly 2005
One day the sun is gonna shine on me and mine
I’m tired of being poor
I’m tired of thinking there must be more
I wanna be rich
I got that itch for money
Preacher on the TV talks about our sins
says that riches are in heaven
We can send our money to him
Man on the street asks me for a dime
If I had a dime to lend him we’d both be doing fine
One day the sun is gonna shine on me and mine
I just wanna know what’s it like to be rich
Is it cool to have money to burn
Money to invest Hmm……..means money in return
The man on the street says he’s tired of being bored
Woman on the corner says she’s tired of being ignored
The guy over there he’s just trying to score
You know me I’m just tired of being poor
Tired of thinking there must be something more
I’m tired of being poor
I just wanna know what it’s like to be rich
Do what I wanna do
See who I wanna see
Go where I wanna go
Be what I wanna be
Not worry bout anything but counting my money
This twist of fate has jacked me around for the last time
If I could find some higher ground
That would at least keep me dry
Coz I’m tired of living like I’m swimming with a hole in my head
Just wanna get rich quick
