Pullin' On the Reins

Kyle is a cashier in the corner village store Seven days a week he works Just pushing on a cash drawer The gambling debts and empty bets Have chained him to this place Now all the money he touches now Gets locked in the store safe Mr. Claire was a millionaire and a caption of his field On his farm a lucky charm Made all the cash crops yield Then one July Uncle Sam came by And shut that farmer down Cause Mr. Clair had not declared All the cash crops in his ground Cause there's always someone Pullin' on the reins Cause there's always someone Pullin' on, pullin' on, pullin' on Look around and what you'll see Is everybody tied down to some degree We're like links upon an endless chain Someone's gotta pull our reins Look around and what you'll see Is everybody tied down to some degree We're like links upon an endless chain Someone's gotta pull our reins Someone's gotta pull our reins Dr. Lee has a family and a nice house in the hills No money in his pool He uses it to drown in bills Every single day, more pour in Many mouths to feed But not enough to swallow them Cause there's always someone Pullin' on the reins Cause there's always someone Pullin' on, pullin' on, pullin' on I don't know, but the things I've seen Now I'm a younger man and I might be green But for many years and the time between We're all the gears on the fixed machine Look around and what you'll see Is everybody tied down to some degree We're like links upon an endless chain Someone's gotta pull our reins Look around and what you'll see Is everybody tied down to some degree We're like links upon an endless chain Someone's gotta pull our reins Someone's gotta pull our reins I don't know, but I must say Don't need no one now to guide my way Gonna sing my song, gonna work all day And no one's gonna pull my reins I don't know, but I must say Don't need no one now to guide my way Gonna sing my song, gonna work all day And no one's gonna pull my reins And no one's gonna pull my reins
