about

This song was written as an amalgamation of different people I had come across in my life. The names were withheld to protect the guilty.

lyrics

Give an inch and you take a mile
There is no telling behind the smile
Pay your dues while he grows old
Count up the loot before the body’s cold

Travel the world see the seven seas
Have no cares do as you please
No nine to five, not up your alley
No sense of value or reality

No sense in working to pay the rent
You ain’t broke, hell you ain’t even bent
Always looking for the next free ride
Have you no dignity, where is your pride?

Wear used clothes but deep down a snob
Love is work and you’ve never had a job
When you gonna make your own way
All that work just means you get no play

Chorus/Bridge:
Gold digger, gold digger – When you gonna pay your own way
Gold digger, gold digger – All that work just means you get no play
Gold digger, gold digger – When you gonna pay your own way
Gold digger, gold digger – All that work just means you get no play
