Rich Kid Blues — Marianne Faithfull

Havin bad times, now Im paying dues,

Got shoes and money, good friends, too.

I always play to win, and always seem to lose,

Thats why I think I got a rich kids blues.

Thats why I think I got a rich kids blues.

And I know whats going on,

And I know that the way is too long.

And I know just exactly whats on your mind,

Youll be back and Ill lose you forever.

But Im wondering why, girl, should I ask your name

All the people standing by, are they in my game ?

Love is just a story, a story without words,

Words are even never seen and never even heard.

And I know whats going on,

And I know that the way is too long.

And I know just exactly whats on your mind,

Youll be back and Ill lose you forever.

Havin bad times, now Im paying dues

Got shoes and money, good friends, too.

I always play to win, always seem to lose,

Thats why I think I got a rich kids blues.

Thats why I think I got a rich kids blues.
