City Man Land Grab

Where I am

Where I stand

On this piece of dirt

Spit and curse

Built a life with these two hands

I got a letter from the city

About the burden of my home

And the relief they plan to give me

By taking what I own

City man land grab

Well they come from the suburbs

Never felt a sting

Daddy paid their way through school

I had to fight for all my things

He gave them all big box stores

Condos up real high

You can take your lease and tear it to pieces

Burn it in the fire

City man land grab

I buried my dog in them woods

My father on the hill

I took a lesson from the wolves

And learned to fight for my meals

I watched the horses graze the fields

Learned to shoot for the kill

If you ain’t got no sense

Or home for your bones

Well I can help with that

When a man could own his labor

He could stow away some pay

Well they raised the price of living

So you rent each breath you take

I ain’t got time for reading

All the new laws that they make

Ain’t no fancy piece of paper give you the right to take

What ain’t yours to take

That’s just war you wage

Oh, oh

See I buried my dog in them woods

My father on the hill

I took a lesson from the wolves

And learned to fight for my meals

I watched the horses graze the fields

Learned to shoot for the kill

If you ain’t got no sense

Or home for your bones

Well I can help with that

If you ain’t got no sense

Or home for your bones

Well I can help with that
