Inflation Blues - B.B. King (雷利·金)[00:00:00]

Hey Mr. President[00:00:47]

All your congressmen, too[00:00:50]

You got me frustrated[00:00:53]

And I don't know what to do[00:00:55]

I'm trying to make a living[00:00:59]

I can't save a cent[00:01:01]

It takes all of my money[00:01:04]

Just to eat and pay my rent[00:01:06]

I got the blues[00:01:09]

Got those inflation blues[00:01:13]

You know, I'm not one[00:01:20]

Of those high brows[00:01:22]

I'm average Joe to you[00:01:24]

I came up eating cornbread[00:01:27]

Candied yams and chicken stew[00:01:29]

Now you take that paper dollar[00:01:33]

It's only that in name[00:01:36]

The way that buck has shrunk[00:01:38]

It's a lowdown dirty shame[00:01:40]

That's why I got the blues[00:01:44]

Got those inflation blues[00:01:48]

Mr. President Please cut the price of sugar[00:03:01]

I wanna make my coffee sweet[00:03:05]

I wanna smear some butter on my bread[00:03:08]

And I just got to have my meat[00:03:10]

When you start rationing[00:03:14]

You really played the game[00:03:16]

And things are going up[00:03:19]

And up and up and up[00:03:20]

And my check remains the same[00:03:22]

That's why I got the blues[00:03:24]

Got those inflation blues[00:03:26]
