New York Banker - Todd Snider[00:00:00]

Written by：Mike Osheowitz/Todd Snider[00:00:01]

All these years arkansas teachin' at the high school[00:00:24]

How was I to know by retirement day[00:00:31]

I'd learn a lesson so cruel[00:00:35]

I came to the day I had waited on[00:00:39]

Just to find out all the money in our pension was gone[00:00:42]

We invested in somethin' called the abacus bond[00:00:46]

Sold to us by a New York banker[00:00:50]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:00:56]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:01:04]

A big time banker from New York city[00:01:19]

Came down south one day[00:01:23]

Sold our people on the bond[00:01:26]

Had our money bettin' on some kinda[00:01:28]

Home loans getting' paid[00:01:31]

Buy it they say we were clearly told[00:01:34]

This kinda thing was even safer than gold[00:01:38]

But later on we found out the bond we'd been sold[00:01:42]

Had been set up to fail all along[00:01:45]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:01:50]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:01:57]

We'd been set up to fail all along[00:02:50]

Though none of our people had ever quite sensed it[00:02:53]

Come to find out the bond born to fail'd been built[00:02:57]

So that banker could bet his bread against it[00:03:01]

When the house market crashed our retirement did too[00:03:05]

Everybody said there was nothing we could do[00:03:09]

That banker walked off with a million or two[00:03:13]

I'm still teachin' at the high school[00:03:17]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:03:21]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:03:28]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:03:44]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:03:51]

Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people[00:03:59]
