I was looking for the lyrics to that song by David Lindley to post..."Pay the Man.."
anyone know it?
Kerry
Could this be it Kerry?
See the way the wind blows
Lives are intertwined
Watch the way the world goes
The man deals out our plight
Jester in the corner
Laughs without a sound
Jester in the corner
Malady abounds
In our souls
See the way the sun sets
Twillight of this life
The man is making little bets
Playing with our lives
All that I believe now
Anything is possible
A simple explanation
For the evil in this world
And in our souls
In our souls
Come down to the sorry and sable
It's always the man
Always keeping you down
Bow down cause I see it before me
Shadow and light
That keeps you running
Shut up you talk to much
Pay the man
shut up you talk too much
Look at you and your struggle for freedom
But you aint nothing
We all pay the man for a living
Wouldn't it be nice for a change now
To be unchained
My life is for me now
But this is life
Pay the man
Shut up you talk too much
Pay the man
Shut up you talk too much
Pay the man
Is this the song you're looking for? love, Kat

Oops Kerry, sorry, lol. Is this a country song you're looking for? I'm limited in my knowledge of country music. For some reason I had you pegged as listening to the same kind of music I do......Creed, Nickelback, Matchbox twenty....etc, was I wrong? I have the world's worst memory. Maybe it was Rachel. I'm remembering (or trying to,lol) Bob's ten page thread on lyrics. Love, Kat
Kerry- This is what you are looking for..

PAY THE MAN
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Of the senators in the fancy houses
He's a friend of Babylon
Got a wife and a dog and a cadillac
And people hung around
Got his ways and means and all he needs
To keep him satisfied
But before he leaves this world
He's got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Sally had a baby
It almost droke her crazy
When she dropped into the river
Now Sally she's a happy girl
And you see her on a ...
She's doing all the best she can
And she...
...you got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
A capella
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man
Pay the man
Everybody's got to pay the man
And before you leave this world
You got to pay the man

Hi,
I'm not sure about the song your refering too, but David lindley was a great guitar player, did alot with Jackson Brown, Warren Zevon, just to name a couple,
great slide player too, if I'm thinking of the right guy. Big in the Southern Ca. music scene in the seventies.
Take care...................................God bless.......................................Bob
