If Dirt Were Dollars - Don Henley

Walkin like a millionaire
Smilin like a king
He leaned his shopping cart against the wall
He said  I been a lot of places
And I seen a lot of things
But  sonny  I seen one thing that beats em all
I was flyin back from lubbock
I saw jesus on the plane
   Or maybe it was elvis
You know  they kinda look the same
Hey  look out  junior  youre steppin on my bed
I said  I dont see nothin
He just glared at me and said

Lookin like a beauty queen
Loyal as a wife
She raised her little voice and testified
I am a good girl
Ive been one all my life
But her virtue was as swollen as her pride
She shouldve had the oscar
She must have been miscast
Her fifteen minutes went by so fast
I said  now  baby  have you got no shame
She just looked at me  uncomprehendingly
Like cows at a passing train
We got the bully pulpit
And the poisoned pen
We got a press no better
Than the public men
This brave new world
Gone bad again
Gods finest little creatures
Looking brave and strong
Whistling past the graveyard
Nothing can go wrong
Quoting from the scriptures
With patriotic tears
We got the same old men
With the same old fears
Standing at attention
Wrapped in stars and stripes
They hear the phantom drummers
And the nonexistent pipes
These days the buck stops nowhere
No one takes the blame
But evil is still evil
In anybodys name
Wed all be in the black
I wouldn't worry anymore
