When I was a kid, candy was a nickel
Had some roller skates and a red bicycle
It was the land of the brave, home of the free
Some of our jobs jumped over the sea
It was a high price to pay
You're gettin' more for your money today
Way back then Daddy had his own business
He was a self-made man, he was independent
Whatever you need you know they got it
It was a high price to pay
You're gettin' more for your money today
Well, I needed a part for my washing machine
They picked up the call in the Philippines
I got a Chinese phone and a Japanese car
But the gasoline takes me twice as far
Let's pick it, boys
Bernie Madoff with the rich folks' money
They didn't think that was very funny
Well, the Dow is up but the chips are down
And there ain't very many good jobs around
It was a high price to pay
To get more for your money today
Last night I had a terrible dream
I was eatin' these cookies and chocolate ice cream
And the government didn't want to pay the debt
And the whole damn country got repossessed
It was a high price to pay
To get more for your money today
It was a high price to pay
You're gettin' more
For your money today

Keyshia Cole - Just Like You
I'm on the move.
I don't wanna lose what I came to prove.
(It's everything)
I expect myself to be.
And I'm gonna do ever...
I don't have no reason
To turn you around
I don't have all the reasons
To turn you around
I ain't going nowhere, baby
No how, no way
You're not always...
I been high
I been low
I been everywhere I wanted to go
But I never been here before
I been all around the world
But what I'm seeing right now
Feels...
I'm takin' my time, I'm takin' it slow
I'm making it rhyme, wherever I go
I've learned my lesson, I've seen the light
No more guessing, I'm gonna be a...
I was standing by my window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken
By ...
I pulled in to Nazareth
I was feeling 'bout half past dead
I just need to find a place
Where I can lay my head
Mister, can you tell me
Where a girl mi...
Something's wrong, I can feel it
Where do I begin
A case has been built against me
That I ain't never gonna win
I get blamed for everything
It's getti...
Stayed by your side, so faithfully
Could’ve worn a sign, said beware of me
I never wandered, no I never strayed
Nobody got by, when I was at the gate
...
Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me when you're not strong
