(news? what news? )

Cant afford no shoes

(get a good deal on tape)

Have you heard the news?

(news? cant afford a paper)

Cant afford no shoes

(hi-yo-hi)



Went to buy some cheap detergent

Some emergent nation

Got my load

Got my load

That I stowed



Well, well

Hey lawdy mama,

Cant afford no shoes

Maybe theres a bundle of rags that I could use

Hey anybody,

Can you spare a dime

If youre really hurtin, a nickel would be fine

Hey everybody

Nothin we can buy

Chump hare rama, aint no good to try

Recession

Depression
