Welfare Boogie - Fraternity

Collection on Friday

Collection on Friday

The treasure keeper will drop me a line

We spend it by Monday

Tomorrow’s a Bon day

Can’t handle on the road if the weather is fine

-CHORUS-

Come and sing the welfare boogie

Come with me Oh you know that it’ll fare me well

I’ll find me a lady

I’ll find me a lady

She’ll cheat in the bottle, and we’ll double our pay

We’ll save up our coupons

We’ll save up our coupons

Trade them into genuine Mexican (?)

(CHORUS)

Well my friend

You can plainly see

That the welfare boogie’s

Doin' fine by me

I got me a problem

A real social problem

I can’t find employment for more than a week

You might think I’m sleazy

But you know it ain’t easy

Findin' employment’s a job for a freak

(CHORUS)

Yeaaahhh

But now I’ve been busted

The wrong guy, I’ve trusted

Well they put me in jail

And they’ve thrown out the key

Things could have been better

But there’s no weekly (?)

But my bread and my board

(?) for free

(CHORUS)

Yeaaahhh
