Federal Aid (And the Money Belongs To Us)

Johnny Rebel




Federal aid.......federal aid
We hear it all the time!          (CHORUS)
But it's not really federal aid, cause the money is yours and mine!
The money is yours and mine!

I read in the papers
In real big print
About a suger-coated speech
Made by our President

With federal aid
He thinks he'll win our trust
But, federal aid...hell!
The money belongs to us!

He puts taxes on this....and taxes on that
Just any kind of tax, to keep the gov't. fat
He says he's gonna give us federal aid, or bust!
But, federal aid....hell! The money belongs to us!

Repeat chorus.

He started a new program
The 'anti-poverty school'
I think it's a good idea
Nobody wants to be a fool!

Now he says he's running short of funds
And that ain't no joke!
But it ain't the gov't that's hurtin'
It's us that's goin' broke!

Now, if we could just keep
Most of the money we've made
There wouldn't be much reason
To have federal aid.

Now, I believe in helping the poor
I think it's a must
But it's not federal aid....hell!
The monet belongs to us!

Repeat chorus.

Now, why should the President
Take all the credit?
When the money we "donate"
Is what makes up his debit?

Each time a disaster
Strikes our great land
Federal aid takes the credit
For lending a hand!

Now, I'd like to think
That my dollar helped out
And so would everyone else
Without any doubt

Cause it's really our money
We place in their trust
So, federal aid.....hell!
The money belongs to us!

Repeat chorus.
