One In Six

One In Six One in six pick up sticks one in six pick up sticks one in six live below the poverty line and you've got yours and I've got mine one in six over sixteen percent America is great America is rich one in six live below the poverty line I hope that you and yours are doing fine a family of four eighteen fifty a month a wife and two kids crack that weekly nut rent, food, the electric bill and water think they're crying out to the holy father who created us all to serve him by serving each other all through out history the poor have been with us even though God put us in a place with more than enough and Armageddon is just a world war away and the new world is coming it's getting closer every day one in six hold on to the faith the Lord is coming to take our pain away and when his government comes it'll be here to stay he'll rid the world of the greed and her ways by destroying those who live in her grave one in six pick up sticks one in six pick up sticks one in six pick up sticks
