I know a man He was born to be a poor It made him so complain now (??) He decided to settle the score He hit a bank Said he'd like taking care of my child (??) He will leave him high on the hole (??) But he only left for a little while Knock at his door Who could it be Noone (??) but the Law And then he put his gun yeah And he shot the first men he saw He k**ed them dead You know the other men shot back Now he's living in a wheelchair Down at Blackpool down on the track Ain't it hard It got to be real hard To get what he wanted [Let me tell you a little something else Now listen to the song] I know a woman And he hit her every day (??) You know she won't find no man (??) She won't find a shepherd (??) just to get hurt You see she ain't to be She don't look too wrong now (??) But her children're hungry They're hungry as the day is long (??) You see they put her man They put him in an institution Now she ain't got nothing no She got nothing but a revolution You see she lost her job Now she got to try again yeah You ain't no welfare it (??) They had to get back on her feet again yeah yeah Ain't it hard It got to be real hard To get what she's lacking
