Rich Man's Blues
Song lyrics...
I got a twenty room mansion with my own drinks bar
and a private pool with a dozen sports cars
but see my life's all empty and I'm all confused
'cos i don't know why I got these rich man's blues
I own a yacht in Bermuda and a private jet
and I once lost a million in a racehorse bet
I throw expensive parties to dine and shmooze
but I just can't stop these rich man's blues
I drink pink champagne and snort some coke
from a crystal goblet and a fifty pound note
I'm as high as a kite but I ain't got not clues
as to why i've still got these rich man's blues
Now my gal's eighteen and a beauty queen
she ain't got no brains but she sure is keen
to max out my cards on clothes and shoes
maybe this's why I got the rich man's blues?
See I got everything I want but nothing I need
just addicted to spending I can't stop this greed
so I took me a holiday and flew to Santa Cruz
but even that couldn't shake my rich man's blues
When I got back home I found a note on the floor
from the bank sayin' I couldn't spend no more
'cos my card they said had been way over used
'n this they said would end my rich man's blues
So they repossessed my home 'n took back my yacht
and the shirt on my back was all i'd got
then my gal she left when I told her the news
so now im poor but happy without those rich man's blues
I got a twenty room mansion with my own drinks bar
and a private pool with a dozen sports cars
but see my life's all empty and I'm all confused
'cos i don't know why I got these rich man's blues
I own a yacht in Bermuda and a private jet
and I once lost a million in a racehorse bet
I throw expensive parties to dine and shmooze
but I just can't stop these rich man's blues
I drink pink champagne and snort some coke
from a crystal goblet and a fifty pound note
I'm as high as a kite but I ain't got not clues
as to why i've still got these rich man's blues
Now my gal's eighteen and a beauty queen
she ain't got no brains but she sure is keen
to max out my cards on clothes and shoes
maybe this's why I got the rich man's blues?
See I got everything I want but nothing I need
just addicted to spending I can't stop this greed
so I took me a holiday and flew to Santa Cruz
but even that couldn't shake my rich man's blues
When I got back home I found a note on the floor
from the bank sayin' I couldn't spend no more
'cos my card they said had been way over used
'n this they said would end my rich man's blues
So they repossessed my home 'n took back my yacht
and the shirt on my back was all i'd got
then my gal she left when I told her the news
so now im poor but happy without those rich man's blues
