Government Bailout Blues (A. Tracy)
Written, Performed & Recorded by Sleepy Andy Tracy

lyrics

Congress says, "600 Dollars"
Whilst everything around us tanks
All of the Essential Workers
Will receive a hearty thanks
By now you surely know who
Will make off with all the cash
But everyone will hide their eyes
When they see the coming crash

And you know the biggest difference
Is always influence and clout
I'm just the American Public
Where the Hell is my Bailout?
Just give me a few thousand
Could wipe all my worries out
You've helped all your friends and backers
Where is our Bailout?

We see stories from around the globe 'bout
How this catastrophe's going
At least half the mental strain is
Just sitting there and not knowing
If you'll have money, if you'll have a home
If everything gets shut back down
Half the country's under water
How long 'til we start to drown?

You know the biggest difference
Is always influence and clout
I'm just the American Public
But where is our Bailout?
We've had to spend this whole year
Just give me a few thousand
Could wipe all my worries out
We just need a fresh start too
Hey! Where is our Bailout?

Take care of who we need to help
There's a lot a couple trillion can buy
But we won't get any of those things
If our leaders refuse to try
We just need a hand and some peace of mind
I am pulling for you, it's true
'Cause all that floating funny money
Won't trickle down to me and you

You know the biggest difference
Is always influence and clout
We could use a fresh start too
But where is our Bailout?
We've had to spend this whole year
With pain and guilt and doubt
Let's help people get back on track
Hey! Where is our Bailout?

And you know the biggest difference
Is always influence and clout
I'm just the American Public
Where the Hell is my Bailout?
Just give me a few thousand
Could wipe all my worries out
We just need a fresh start too
Where is our Bailout?
