Country gentleman walked a crooked mile

Got our money in his pocket

Did it all with a very handsome smile

Now he's livin' it up in a great big office

He ain't a-gonna help no poor man

He ain't a-goona help no poor man

He ain't a-gonna help no poor man

He's just gonna help his rich friends

He ain't a-gonna help no women

He ain't a-gonna help no children

He's just gonna help his rich friends

Country gentleman we see him on T V

Glad handin' folks and chattin' to the nation

We never knew what really to believe

Just word upon slogan with emotional

connection

And in the papers all we'd ever read is

So and so big-shot signed his resignation

Now country gentleman he wants us to

believe

That he's kind and honest with the best

intentions

He ain't a-gonna help no poor man

He ain't a-gonna help no children

He ain't a-gonna help no women

He's just gonna help his rich friends

Country gentleman now there's a bird

that flew

High above his nation prayed on

its weakness

Picked our bones and threw it in his stew

Thank God he went back to California

He ain't a-gonna help no poor man

He ain't a-gonna help no children

He ain't a-gonna help no women

He's just gonna help his rich friends
