lyrics

when we started out I was young and naive
didn’t know his past a murderer and a thief
I jumped in too soon because I didn’t get a choice
told me he’d be good for me I was just a girl

it wasn’t long ‘fore I began to hear the stories
built his house on bones a fortune made on slaves
wasn’t ’til I saw it for myself did I believe
he was more a lying cheating no good crook than he seemed

so I did just what I had to do
looked him in the eyes and said we’re through

I broke up with the government, disillusioned heart broken on the floor
I broke up with the government, oh say you won’t be seeing me no more

I got real suspicious back when the market crashed
he bailed out the banks using our cash
when I got sick he wouldn’t take me to a nurse
thought I’d be the gold digger when I first saw his purse

now I’m getting worried that he won’t leave me alone
the cops the courts the FBI he calls them all his own
afraid that he’s more popular he’s got a lot more friends
now I went and left him no I can’t go back again
