Rich Men North Of Richmond Lyrics

Rich Men North Of Richmond Lyrics - Oliver Anthony: When I first came across Oliver Anthony and his music, I was blown away to say the least. He had a whole collection of songs that I could listen to for hours. Oliver resides in Farmville, VA with his 3 dogs and a plot of land he plans on turning into a small farm to raise livestock. We have a whole mess of songs set to release of Oliver for your viewing and listening pleasure, he is truly special and notes his biggest influence as Hank Williams Jr. Oliver wants to give hope to the working class and your average hard working young man who may have lost hope in the grind of trying to get by.

Rich Men North Of Richmond Song Details:

Song: Rich Men North Of Richmond

Singer: Oliver Anthony

Written by: Oliver Anthony

Label: Oliver Anthony Music

I've been selling my soul

Working all day

Overtime hours

For bullshit pay

So I can sit out here and waste my life away

Drag back home and drown my troubles away

It's a damn shame

What the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

Living in the new world

With an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just want to have total control

Wanna know what you think

Wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know, but I know that you do

Cause your dollar ain't shit, and it's taxed to no end

'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

I wish politicians would look out for miners

And not just minors on an island somewhere

Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothing to eat

And the obese milking welfare

Well God, if you're 5 foot 3 and you're 300 pounds

Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds

Young men are putting themselves six feet in the ground

'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kicking them down

Lord, it's a damn shame
