Money Rules the World Songtext
von Walter Trout

Politicians bought and sold
And they′re doing
Just what they're told
Pretending that
They got our backs

But they belong to Exxon
And Goldman Sachs
They′re standing
With the flag unfurled
But it's money
It's money
That rules the world


They′re trying to say
To me and you
Corporations are people too
The way that it seems to me
They′re trying to steal
Our democracy
So many accusations hurled
But it's money
It′s money
That rules the world

I used to watch the eagle fly
See him soaring across the sky
But now it makes me wanna cry
I'm afraid that he soon will die
So listen ev′ry boy and girl
It's money, it′s money that rules the world
