Long Whip/ Big America — Corrosion Of Conformity

Saw the news today, some D.C. suit Try to break away, said he lost another million Just another old man trying to pass a buck With his dirty hand, good thing he knows his bible

Stick his ass in hell Even better in this tiny cell Make him understand the meaning Of these words they try to preach Just to keep them out of the nation's reach I guess it's all for the better

Take it all away, take me Won't you take me far away Hey, hey, hey, what's that game you play Will it make me richer 'Cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

Now I was barely 21 laying in a ditch With a lonely gun so I gave my heart away But I got it back today in a velvet box stamped USA Now all the neighbors call me hero, hero

I'm gonna lose my mind so I buckled down And did some crime, but it wasn't when they taught me Hit the road in high pursuit, now I'm on the run Just like the suit, didn't know it was this easy

Take it all away, take me Won't you take me far away Hey, hey, hey what's this game you play Will it make me a poor man 'Cause I got an extra dime but I lose it every time Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

Hey, hey, hey, what's that game you play Will it make me richer 'Cause I do not have a dime and I hate to waste your time Maybe I'm wrong but I think this whip is too long

No more, no more, See I can't seem to find the time to crawl across the line But I can't stay here till I die
