Текст (слова) песни: Mellencamp John Cougar - Down And Out In Paradise
Dear Mr. President I live in the suburbs It`s a long way from Washington, D.C. Had me a job Workin` for wages Till the company moved out And they forgot about me Can`t draw unemployment For some unknown reason My kids are hungry I`ve got four mouths to feed I go out everyday lookin` for suitable employment Do you think there`s something you could do for me Cause I`m CHORUS Down and out here in paradise Down and out and I`m on my knees I`m down and out here in paradise Looks like the milk and honey Done run out on me Dear Mr. President I used to be a dancer Got a little bit too old So I became a secretary Married a man In Las Vegas, Nevada And ten years later He ran out on the kids and me Some said I was pretty But those days are over Now I`ve no place to live And I`m out on the streets Oh, Mr. President Can I tell you a secret I never ever thought that his could happen to me Cause I`m CHORUS Dear Mr. President I`m just a young kid I`m in the fourth grade At Riley Elementary My mom and dad`s been actin` funny I`m not sure what If it ain`t got something to do with me My daddy`s always drunk My mom`s a babysitter And I don`t like the Russians Cause I hear they hate me Dear Mr. President Can I ask you one question When the bombs fall down Will they hurt everyone in my family Yeah, yeah CHORUS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
