I was raised by myself down in Arkansas
My family had some rich folks' but they'd never call
If they wanna be that way well that's fine with me
Cause i ain't got a thing to say to a man filled with greed
Well if you can't even help your own,
Well my friend one day you're gonna be all alone
Well i'm real down to earth,
and i know just how it hurts,
to be in a bind, just tryin to stay alive
Well i can drink and i can cuss And i can be pretty doggone tough
I like to stay up all night just to see that big sun rise,
and light-up my life
You better keep your eyes on whats goin on
With the government today, cause they're doin us wrong
They took the farm away from my poor grandad
And i never will forgive them for doin that
Well if you can't even help your own,
Well my friend one day you're gonna be all alone
Well if you can't even help your own,
Well my friend one day you're gonna be all alone
