Paroles
0:29Dear Mr President
0:31I live in the suburbs
0:33It's a long way from Washington D C
0:36Had me a job
0:38Workin' for wages
0:39Till the company moved out
0:41And they forgot about me
0:43Can't draw unemployment
0:45For some unknown reason
0:47My kids are hungry
0:48I've got four mouths to feed
0:50I go out every day looking for suitable employment
0:53Do you think there's something you could do for me
0:56Cause I'm
0:58Down and out
0:59Here in paradise
1:01Down and out
1:02And I'm on my knees
1:05I'm down and out
1:06Here in paradise
1:08Looks like the milk and honey
1:09Done run out on me
1:26Dear Mr President
1:27I used to be a dancer
1:29Got a little bit too old
1:30So I became a secretary
1:33Married a man
1:34In Las Vegas Nevada
1:36And ten years later
1:37He ran out on the kids and me
1:39Some said I was pretty
1:41But those days are over
1:44Now I've no place to live
1:45And I'm out on the streets
1:46Oh Mr President
1:48Can I tell you a secret
1:50I never ever thought that this could happen to me
1:53Cause I'm
1:54Down and out
1:56Here in paradise
1:58Down and out
1:59And I'm on my knees
2:01I'm down and out
2:03Here in paradise
2:04Looks like the milk and honey
2:06Done run out on me
2:30Dear Mr President
2:31I'm just a young kid
2:33I'm in the fourth grade
2:34At Riley Elementary
2:37My mom and dad's been actin' funny
2:38I'm not sure what
2:40If it's got something to do with me
2:43My daddy's always drunk
2:45My mom's a babysitter
2:47And I don't like the Russians
2:48Cause I hear they hate me
2:51Dear Mr President
2:52Can I ask you one question
2:54When the bombs fall down
2:55Will they hurt everyone in my family
2:57Yeah yeah
2:58Down and out
3:00Here in paradise
3:02Down and out
3:03And I'm on my knees
3:05I'm down and out
3:06Here in paradise
3:08Looks like the milk and honey
3:10Done run out on me
3:27Down and out
3:28Here in paradise
