Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Mr. Banker
Mister, please
How much does money mean?
Won't you reconsider, mister?
Won't you do this thing for me?
[Verse 2]
Ain't got no house
Ain't got no car
All I got, Lord, is my guitar
But you can have that, Mr. Banker
Won't you bury my papa for me?
Oh, Mr, Banker, please
Listen to the way that sound
[Verse 3]
Watch out
[Verse 4]
I would not be here
On my knees
But hey, Mr. Banker
It means so much to me
Oh, won't you reconsider, mister?
Won't you do this thing for me?
[Verse 5]
I told you, mister
[Verse 6]
Said, I ain't got no house
Ain't got no car
I got me a 1950, uh, Les Paul guitar
Ooh, won't you take it, Mr. Banker?
Won't you bury my papa for me? Yeah
Oh, Mr, Banker, please
