lyrics

On a cold winter day, I got a letter in the mail
'Twas from the landlord
He said, "We're gonna put your house up for sale.
You didn't pay your mortgage, so now we're going to take your house
Unless you pay your rent today,
We're going to boot you and your family out."

My ma is unemployed
I'm just a makin' a measly wage
My ma sat and weeped
As my blood boiled with rage
I ought to kill my landlord
And anyone who tries to mess with me
But I can't afford to go to jail
I've got a family to feed

They took our house
So now we've got to find another place to live
We got to find a cheap shack to call home
Because we ain't got much to give
