[Verse 1] We're overworked and overstressed in our nation
While our senator goes on vacation
I'd like to have him come and sit on my tailgate
Ask him why he's kicking my friends in the face
[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
[Verse 2] Try to raisе up our kids with respect
While our country is gеtting further into debt
We don't teach hardwork just self-esteem in a social justice cause
Tried getting off the couch, try following the law
[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
[Verse 3] We're treading water while congress gets a raise
And if they had our jobs they wouldn't last a day
And daddy got a laid off last year we're praying things pick up
Because congress ain't the ones that make the payments on his truck
[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
Yeah, the rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
I ain't had a damn vacation since corona first came through
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
While our senator goes on vacation
I'd like to have him come and sit on my tailgate
Ask him why he's kicking my friends in the face
[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
[Verse 2] Try to raisе up our kids with respect
While our country is gеtting further into debt
We don't teach hardwork just self-esteem in a social justice cause
Tried getting off the couch, try following the law
[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
[Verse 3] We're treading water while congress gets a raise
And if they had our jobs they wouldn't last a day

[Chorus] The rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
Our money ain't offshore it's mom and pops, and old church pews
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
Yeah, the rich got theirs, the poor's got welfare, guess who's going to screwed?
I'm up at five, asleep by midnight, working like a fool
I ain't had a damn vacation since corona first came through
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
Why is the middle class the ones that all get screwed?
