Been having bad times

And I've been paying dues

Got shoes and money

And good friends too



Always play to win

But always seem to lose

That's why I think I got

A rich kid's blues



That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues



And I know what is going on

And I know, but I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly what is on your mind

Jumping back, I know if I'm still gonna lose you



But I'm wondering why, girl

Did I ask your name?

And all the people standing by

Oh, they're in my game



Love's just a story

A story without words

Words are almost never seen

And never even heard



I know what is going on

And I know that I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly what is on your mind

Jumping back, I know it's all a rut, you want me to prove it to you



Though my good times

Are just paying dues

I've got shoes and money

And good friends too



Though I always play to win

I always seem to lose

That's why I think I got

A rich kid's blues



That's why I think I got a rich kid's blues



I know what's going on

I know what's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on
