Dollar Bill Refugee

 Dollar Bill Refugee

 

Tent city we’re living under the highway

The well to do wish we’d just go away

If Jesus was on Earth he’d kick back down here

Instead we’re fed with looks of fear

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

At the mission house you get a hot meal

A full belly and a prayer what a deal

God in His great wisdom puts you through a test

All of us poor we’re doubly blessed

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

And poetry my friend won’t pay the rent

While John’s in the city crying repent

Whispers of revolution vibrate in the air

As billionaires laugh without care

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

 

Bombs are falling made in the U.S.A.

More death and taxes coming your way

All our young march with a gun in their hand

Zombie apocalypse legions of the damned

 

The American dream oppression of the poor

Jails overflowing we’re ever knowing war

It’s only business so don’t take it to heart

Hustling bustling now do your part

 

I’m a dollar bill refugee

The landlord put one over on me

A victim of the economy

I’m a dollar bill refugee

Dementia Blues

 Dementia Blues

 

She promised forever only to forget

Today is the day that we first met

Take me home down by the Greens

It’s in Grenada that she means

 

Dementia blues I forgot all the words

Dementia blues I can’t play the chords

Dementia blues my love is still real

Dementia blues it hurts when I feel

 

Sometimes angry then weeping tears

Taking trips into her former years

I’m not a child she boldly proclaims

Always calling me by different names

 

Dementia blues I forgot all the words

Dementia blues I can’t play the chords

Dementia blues my love is still real

Dementia blues it hurts when I feel

 

The stores all know her up and down Grove Street

They’ll bring her inside and give her a treat

I’ll get a call waking me from a morning rest

What once was a pleasure is an endless test

 

It’s what they call by the long goodbye

Halfway in the grave I see her lie

After such a troubled life you have to ask ‘Why?’

But God in his kindness never does reply

 

Dementia blues I forgot all the words

Dementia blues I can’t play the chords

Dementia blues my love is still real

Dementia blues it hurts when I feel

 

And you just don’t want to let go

Late at night in fright tears flow

What I loved is already gone

Still to the memories you cling on

 

Dementia blues I forgot all the words

Dementia blues I can’t play the chords

Dementia blues my love is still real

Dementia blues it hurts when I feel
