Once upon a time in the land of The land of lawyers, and money A funny little thing we all greed Brought my hometown down to its
A little bit 'bout the shape I'm in needs shoes and the wallet's thin Got no gas or But singin' in harmony
Sell me up, sell me I be sold out sittin' here around my house, take my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
No block party, everybody's No street lights, no liquids I got no room on my credit And I'm three court dates the prison yard
My credit score's fallen like the New Mets ain't a debt collector that ain't called yet They say, "Money talk, it only swears" And got me in my underwear
Sell me up, me down I be out sittin' here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't take my seat at the bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
upon a time in America The politicians and fell outta love There was a of the common man And left us sittin' without no plan
Swimmin' through bills like Michael and out and can't get no help The kids are hungry, French Poodles Pickin' through dumpsters for Ramen
Standin' in line a family to feed Tradin' for Indian beads It's been a long time since we felt Got waitin' on Robin Hood
Sell me up, sell me I be sold out sittin' hangin' around Take my house, my car But you take my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
Once a time in America The went and fell outta love There was a raping of the man And left us here without no plan
me up, sell me down I be sold out sittin' here hangin' Take my house, my car But you take my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
