I've been down

I've been beat

I've been tossed into the street

Making nickels

Begging dimes

Just to get my bottle of wine

Some say life she's a lady

Kinda soft, kinda shady

I can't tell you life is rich

She's no lady, she's a bitch

They sucked my body out

But then there is no doubt

Gonna pay the devil his dues

Cause I'm so sick of being abused



Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Don't you know life is a bitch

Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Out of the palace and into the ditch



Steal my money

Steal my car

Took my women

And an old guitar

Running crazy

Running wild

Blind ally in my eye

Just can't fight the temptation

It?s become my inspiration

Gonna get myself an axe

Break some heads and break some backs

They sucked my body out

But then there is no doubt

Gonna pay the devil his dues

Cause I'm so sick of being abused



Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Don't you know life is a bitch

Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Out of the palace and into the ditch

Don't stop me

(Guitar solo)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Don't you know life is a bitch

Eat the rich (the rich)

Eat the rich (the rich)

Out of the palace and into the ditch

Out of the palace and into the ditch

They sucked my body out
