Select language to translate this lyric
if that old gang of mine could see me now
i know they'd surely envy me
sitting here sipping this pink champagne
and watching my color TV
while the working man calls
and the middle class falls
i'm living absolutely free
i'm a welfare millionaire
i got you all working for me
i'm a welfare millionaire
i haven't got a quarter to lose
yesterday i had those steadily depressing
workin' at the car wash blues
but i traded those boots and a rubber suit
for this pair of alligator shoes
now i'm a welfare millionaire
with nothing but bootsteps to lose
so roll out at dawn
and get your working clothes on
keep moving from seven till three
you can't afford to turn down any overtime
don't forget you're taking care of me
if you're lucky you'll survive and see 65
and get your social security
but it's a long road and i'm part of your load
i'm the boss and you're the employee
i'm a welfare millionaire
i haven't got a quarter to lose
yesterday i had those steadily depressing
workin' at the car wash blues
but i traded those boots and a rubber suit
for this pair of alligator shoes
now i'm a welfare millionaire
with nothing but bootsteps to lose
