Money Grabbers
I look out and see so much greed.
People taking much more than they need.
They all seem like nothing but sandbaggers,
You best beware of the money grabbers.
People living out on the streets,
Walking around without any shoes on their feet.
The poverty is enough to make you stagger.
You better beware of the money grabbers.
Many are losing everything including their homes
The banks won’t even throw them a bone.
They all are like the old time carpetbaggers.
You better beware of the money grabbers.
The war machine has become an excuse to make money.
We no longer live in the land of milk and honey.
Their fancy suits and cars they walk with swagger
You best beware of the money grabbers.
Take and take now there’s nothing left.
It is beginning to look like common theft.
They have gotten so bold, check your back for daggers.
You better beware of the money grabbers.
