Karaoke Rich Men North of Richmond Oliver Anthony

I've been sellin' my soul workin' all day

Overtime hours for bullshit pay

So I can sit out here and waste my life away

Drag back home and drown my troubles away

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to for people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true but it is

Oh it is

Livin' in the new world with an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just wanna have

Total control

Wanna know what you think

Wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know

But I know that you do

'Cos your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

'Cos of rich men north of Richmond

I wish politicians would look out for miners and not just minors on an island somewhere

Lord, we got folks in the street ain't got nothin' to eat

And the obese milkin' welfare

Well God if you're five-foot-three and you're three hundred pounds taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds

Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground 'cos all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down

Lord it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to for people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true but it is

Oh it is

Livin' in the new world with an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just wanna have

Total control

Wanna know what you think

Wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know

But I know that you do

'Cos your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

'Cos of rich men north of Richmond

I've been sellin' my soul workin' all day

Overtime hours for bullshit pay
