Downs Jason Revenue Lyrics

Revenue Lyrics

My dad said, son gotta get a real job 

 so you can pay your way through life 

 your dreams are a wate of time 

 i won't have a singer for a son of mine 

  

 I looked in his eyes as i opined the door 

 he said, you'd better not cross that line boy 

 or you're not my son anymore 

  

 The cash and the papers 

 the chips and the cheddar, the revenue 

 if i ever get some, if and when 

 i reckon you'll be happy then 

 i hope you'll be happy then 

  

 I loved a gril and she dug me 

 but she was always diggin' for a money tree 

 we did the whole damn party scene 

 she left me for a cracker in a limousine 

 years went by and i heard from a friend 

 that she was workin' downtown in a strip show 

 and sellin' her soul to buy blow 

  

 My best friend was havin' tough times 

 he broadsided someone goin' fifty five 

 i found out it was just a scam 

 to pay some bills and get a brand new van 

 the trick was the man he hit was dead the next day 

 which put a few dents in his plans when 

 they came and put hm in the can 

  

 My best friends would come down in a day 

 i guess we all have to learn the hard way 

 money just doesn't pay 

 the cash and the cheddar, the revenue 

 if i ever get some, if and when 

 i reckon you'll be happy then 

 i hope you'll be happy then
