Did you ever just want to lay down
Tell the world you had enough?
Did you ever just want to drop out
When the going got a little bit rough?
Have you ever walked the sidewalks hungry?
Have you ever really had the blues?
So now you want to see how the other half live
Well brother, what you got to lose?
What you got to lose if you leave your home
And you never think of ever going back?
Your father's making money for the good of the country
And your mama's out betting at the track
Camptown ladies sing them songs
A doo dah, doo dah
And now you're gonna let your hair grow long
Get a little pad uptown
Throw away your checkbook and all your credit cards
And use your wits to get around
And you think it's gonna make you happy
See your story in the evening news
And you know it's just a game of trying to point the blame
Well brother, what you got to lose?
Hey lonely Rockefeller square
The underground world don't fit a millionaire
Hey Rocky, what you gonna do?
First time you ever had the pressure on you
Rock when the rocking and the bumming is through
There'll still be a piece of daddy's kingdom for you
Now Rocky, you sure hurt your mama
And your daddy got an ulcer for a year
With the stock market shot and the war still hot
It sure was a cruel thing to do
So don't cry boy
Hey lonely Rockefeller square
The underground life don't fit a millionaire
Hey Rocky, what you gonna do?
First time you ever had the pressure on you
Rock when the rocking and the bumming is through
There'll still be a piece of daddy's kingdom for you

Money to pay, money to pay
Don't you go gay, Rock, you better pray
Money to pay, money to pay
Don't you go gay, Rock, you better pray
Money to pay, money to pay
Don't you go gay, Rock, you better pray
Money to pay, money to pay
Don't you go gay, Rock, you better pray
