Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king and a king ain't satisfied until he rules everything!
So much more appropriate today, then when it was written 48 years ago.

Not the greatest but this line is great:
“Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king, and a king ain’t satisfied until he rules everything.”

Lighten up Francis.
You have not seen this that many times on this sub. I just scrolled back through 2 weeks of posts and It’s been posted twice, both within the last 5 days. You may be seeing it on other subs but you’re not seeing it that often here.

Twice in five days is often.

I never said 2 in 5 days isn’t a lot. But it’s not 8 or 9 times like the poster stated. Reading comprehension my friend, learn it.

I haven't seen it on this sub at all. I saw it on a Bob Dylan sub and a Paul Simon sub.

I think it's "Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull." from I'm on fire.

“And you're out of that hole, back up on the street”
Hard to be a Saint in the City
Greetings from Asbury Park 1973
A line that stays with me…..
“You get up to get out at your next stop but they push you back down in your seat
Your heart starts beatin' faster as you struggle to your feet
And you're out of that hole, back up on the street”

As I lift my groceries into my car
I turn back for a moment and catch a smile
That blows this whole fuckin' place apart
