Once upon a time in the land of The land of lawyers, guns and A little thing we all call greed Brought my down to its knees
A little bit worried 'bout the I'm in Baby needs shoes and the thin Got no gas or But everybody's in harmony
Sell me up, sell me I be sold out sittin' here hangin' Take my house, my car But you can't take my at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
No block party, everybody's No street lights, no liquids I got no room on my credit And I'm court dates from the prison yard
My credit score's fallen like the New York There ain't a collector that ain't called yet say, "Money don't talk, it only swears" And got me in my underwear

Once upon a in America The went and fell outta love was a raping of the common man And left us sittin' here without no
Swimmin' through bills like Michael Down and out and can't get no The kids are hungry, peepin' French Pickin' through for Ramen noodles
Standin' in line with a to feed Tradin' Manhattan for beads It's been a long time we felt good Got everybody on Robin Hood
Sell me up, sell me I be sold out sittin' hangin' around Take my house, my car But you take my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
upon a time in America The politicians went and fell outta was a raping of the common man And left us here without no plan
Sell me up, me down I be sold out here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
