The Unwelcome Guest - Billy Bragg and Wilco[00:00:00]

To the rich man's bright lodges[00:00:08]

I ride in this wind[00:00:11]

On my good horse I call you[00:00:15]

My shiny black Bess[00:00:19]

To the playhouse of fortune[00:00:23]

To take the bright silver[00:00:27]

And gold you have taken[00:00:31]

From somebody else[00:00:35]

And as we go riding[00:00:39]

In the damp foggy midnight[00:00:42]

You snort my good pony[00:00:47]

And you give me your best[00:00:50]

For you know and I know[00:00:54]

Good horse 'mongst the rich ones[00:00:58]

How oftimes we go there[00:01:02]

An unwelcome guest[00:01:06]

I never took food[00:01:18]

From the widows and orphans[00:01:21]

And never a hardworking man I oppressed[00:01:25]

So take your pace easy[00:01:33]

For home soon like lightning[00:01:37]

We soon will be riding[00:01:41]

My shiny black Bess[00:01:44]

No fat rich man's pony[00:01:48]

Can ever overtake you[00:01:52]

And there's not a rider[00:01:56]

From the east to the west[00:01:59]

Could hold you a light[00:02:04]

In this dark mist and midnight[00:02:07]

When the potbellied thieves[00:02:11]

Chase the unwelcome guest[00:02:14]

I don't know good horse[00:02:27]

As we trot in this dark here[00:02:30]

That robbing the rich[00:02:34]

Is for worse or for best[00:02:37]

They take it by stealing[00:02:41]

And lying and gambling[00:02:45]

And I take it my way[00:02:49]

My shiny Black Bess[00:02:53]

I treat horses good[00:02:57]

And I'm friendly to strangers[00:03:00]

I ride and your running[00:03:04]

Makes my guns talk the best[00:03:07]

And the rangers and deputies[00:03:12]

Are hired by the rich man[00:03:15]

To catch me and hang me[00:03:19]

My shining black Bess[00:03:23]

Yes they'll catch me napping one day[00:03:57]

And they'll kill me[00:04:02]

And then I'll be gone[00:04:05]

But that won't be my end[00:04:08]

For my guns and my saddle[00:04:12]

Will always be filled[00:04:16]

By unwelcome travelers[00:04:20]

And other brave men[00:04:24]

And they'll take the money[00:04:28]

And spread it out equal[00:04:31]

Just like the Bible[00:04:35]

And the prophets suggest[00:04:38]

But men that go riding[00:04:43]

To help these poor workers[00:04:46]

The rich will cut down[00:04:50]

Like an unwelcome guest[00:04:53]
