by John Wheeler, Copyright 2007 Wheeler's Drunk and Playing Music (SESAC) When Washington comes around He says man we're gonna part tonight We're gonna roll gonna rock gonna level the block Cause nobody's putting up a fight When Washington comes around He let's you know who you're really working for But long as I get paid and long as I get laid I'm gonna keep coming back for more Cause I don't think I care As long as I can still get my share When Washington comes around When Washington comes around Sometimes he don't even knock no more He just helps himself to the beer in the fridge And leaves the empty bottles laying on the floor When Washington comes around He says times are changing back again
Says he remembers a day when everything was OK Before it all went to hell in sea of sin And I don't think I care As long as I can still get my share When Washington comes around When Washington comes around He says everything is going our way If I could just overlook all the cash his friends took Then everything will be OK When Washington comes around He says it's time to sacrifice If I could just forget the he's placing a bet It won't matter to me he's throwing loaded dice And I don't think I care As long as I can still get my share When Washington comes around And I don't think I mind As long as I don't get left behind When Washington comes around
