THE RACONTEURS LYRICS - Rich Kid Blues

"Rich Kid Blues"



Been having bad times

And I've been paying dues

Got shoes and money

And good friends too



Always play to win

But always seem to lose

That's why I think I got

A rich kid's blues



That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues



And I know what is going on

And I know, but I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly what is on your mind

Jumping back, I know if I'm still gonna lose you



But I'm wondering why, girl

Did I ask your name?

And all the people standing by

Oh, they're in my game



Love's just a story

A story without words

Words are almost never seen

And never even heard



I know what is going on

And I know that I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly what is on your mind

Jumping back, I know it's all a rut, you want me to prove it to you



Though my good times

Are just paying dues

I've got shoes and money

And good friends too



Though I always play to win

I always seem to lose

That's why I think I got

A rich kid's blues



That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues



I know what's going on

I know what's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on
