Lord it’s always been that way
|
Woman shined the apple, and the man had to take a bite
|
Anything that good, God knows, just had to be right
|
Well they woke up naked with a bit headache
|
He been done in by a slippery snake
|
A man and a woman get to live a while and then they die
|
It’s been that way since the git go

|
Politicians make promises that they can’t keep
|
They keep printin' money ‘till they get in way too deep
|
It’s the same old lesson, they never learn
|
They’re too busy workin' on their next term
|
Politicians keep makin' fools out of you and me
|

Lord it’s always been that way
|
Money breeds war, as long as there’s a man alive
|
Rich kids go to college, and the poor kids fight
|
High-rollers crap out ev’ry time, roll a soldier’s bones like loaded dice
|
War is the beast that makes ev’ry mother cry

Lord it’s always been that way
|
He told the truth, and they hung him up to die
|
The son of God who created you and I
|
He said it in the Good Book and letters in red
|
But we keep on forgettin' ev’ry word he said
|
Jesus Christ hung on the cross for you and I
|
It’s been that way since the git go
