Rise Up (And Raise Our Wages)

copyright 2014 Bill Holmes

Feb . 8 2014

I can’t make it on what they pay

Get a 2nd job is what they say

I got three jobs and I’ll tell you what

I’m sick and tired I’ve had enough

[chorus]

Rise Up and Raise Our Wages,

Rise Up, Rise Up

Rise Up and Raise Our Wages,

Rise Up, Rise Up

40 hours don’t pay the rent

30 hours don’t make a dent

20 hours its killin me

Aint no hope for my family

Chorus

They tell you to educate yourself

My degree is sittin on the shelf

These student loans are killin me

My only hope is a Jubilee.

Chorus

repeat chorus and out.
