lyrics

When People Dont Pay
They get pushed out of the way
Trying to stay alive
to the end of the day
People Dont Pay

People Dont Pay
They give and they receive
They believe and they are believed
But People Dont Pay

When People Dont Pay
The landlord takes it out of their hide
They give you 50 lashes full of pride People Dont Pay
People Dont Pay

Since when does staying alive have a price?
If you refill your cup, they charge you twice
But People Dont Pay

People Dont Pay
How many chickens for a cow?
How many hours do I owe you now?
Just get your ass back behnd the plow.
People Dont Pay

People Dont Pay
They should look out for each other.
They shouldnt turn away
They should look out for each other
People Dont Pay

When People Dont Pay
They get pushed out of the way
Trying to stay alive
to the end of the day
People Dont Pay

Give and youll receive
Believe and youll be believed
But People Dont Pay
But People Dont Pay
