Train left the station
I didn't climb aboard
Price of a ticket was too much to afford
And I saw that politician
I know you know his name
Waving from the window of that gravy train
Lemon pie for the poor
Lemon pie for the poor
That's what we're working for
And I hope you weren't expecting more
Than lemon pie for the poor
I'm hungry for a job
I'm hungry for a meal
I'm hungry for the good thing I'm too proud to steal
I'm barely getting by
I'm doing this and that
While people up top keep getting fat
