Master and Slave

No pennies from heaven, no pennies in my hand

Think your drinkin' wine, dad, it's blood of the lamb

That's no way to treat your son, now is it Abraham?

After he busted his ass for youYou've never known no hunger, never took a risk

Through you know you should, you know you'd never raise a fist

If the boss asked you to jump you know you'd find the nearest cliff

That man talks down to you and you talk down to me too, nowMaster and slave in equal parts

Split down the middle drinkin' doubles at the bar

Now master and slave, God bless you both

I got two for the price of oneMaster and slave in equal parts

Split down the middle drinkin' doubles at the bar

Now master and slave, God bless you both

I got two for the price of one

Such a deal for your only sonWhen will this tension be all over

For fallen sons and fathers too?

I'm down to my last dime, no faith in mankind

Come on, let's swing into the grooveLike Jack Homer backed up in a corner

But I never saw a slice of no pie

Oo, too busy standin' in line

Just waitin' for breadBut the father, he walks the water

He never tossed a nickel to his son

Ain't I your prodigal boy?

Ain't I your pride and joy?Friends and Romans, I'm your brother

I'm scratchin' to hang on

The pursuit of happiness is just a carpetbaggers con

When a can of pork and beans could change my attitude

You won't give it up but I coulda been youWhile the masters and slaves, scratch for pieces of the dream

For purple mountain majesties, whatever the hell that means

They give up on each other and that's the way they get ahead

But I can still see the stars through these red, white, and blue prison barsOh, master and slave in equal parts

Split down the middle drinkin' doubles at the bar

Master and slave, God bless you both

I got two for the price of oneMaster and slave in equal parts

Split down the middle drinkin' doubles at the bar

Master and slave, God bless you both

I got two for the price of one

Such a deal for your only sonMaster and slave

Master, master and slave

Oo, master and slave
