Riverboat Gamblers - Rent Is Due lyrics

Try your best and make the list of "who's who"

so its likely you'll succeed.

To get the right vocation you need

proper education and degrees.

By the way...! Here's another fee you

gotta pay all the kids have been

enlisted don't look now you're sick

and twisted like them

Right now!

Politely take your freedom

when you say "tell me what to do"

thought dad had all the answers.

Now he's scraping for some food

he's restless and he's weary,

mom is never in the mood...

One step to retiring,

till rent is due. Uh Oh!

Do your part and make your mark

and credit cards will keep you looking sharp.

your mouting debt's a credit check

that's overlooked and better left forgot.

By the way...! Here's another fee you

gotta pay all the kids have been

enlisted don't look now you're sick

and twisted like them

Right now!

Politely take your freedom

when you say "tell me what to do"

thought dad had all the answers.

Now he's scraping for some food

he's restless and he's weary,

mom is never in the mood...

One step to retiring,

till rent is due. Uh Oh!

Go where they go do as you're told

cause they say it's so.

Yeah but you don't know

why the old folks cry when they bitch and moan.

Politely take your freedom

when you say "tell me what to do"

thought dad had all the answers.

Now he's scraping for some food

he's restless and he's weary,

mom is never in the mood...

One step to retiring,

till rent is due. Uh Oh!
