Dump The Bosses Off Your Back
Dump The Bosses Off Your Back
muzyka: Charles Crozat Converse, 1868
[D]Are you poor, forlorn and [G]hungry?
[D]Are there lots of things you [A]lack?
[D]Is your life made up of [G]misery?
[A]Then dump the bosses off your [D]back.
[A]Are your clothes all torn [D]tattered?
[G]Are you [D]living in a [A]shack?
[D]Would you have your troubles [G]scattered?
[A]Then dump the bosses off your [D]back.
Are you almost split asunder?
Loaded like a long-eared jack?
Boob – why don’t you buck like thunder,
And dump the bosses off your back?
All the agonies you suffer
You can end with one good whack;
Stiffen up, you orn’ry duffer
And dump the bosses off your back.
If you find your factory is closed down
Are your neighbours all on crack?
Buck, let me give you the low down:
Dump the bosses off your back.
If you find your pension looted
Are your buddies in Iraq?
Would you see the rascals booted?
Dump the bosses off your back.
