Give me a job, give me security
give mw a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
my god, I'm hardly alive
my mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
I've got the power, and I've got the will
I'm not a charity case

I belong to no organized political party -- I am a Democrat.
--Will Rogers
