Shoreline - I Grew Up On Easy Street Lyrics

Shoreline Lyrics

"I Grew Up On Easy Street"

I'll take you out to eat
Enjoy your liberties
We've been lucky
We've been raised in wealthy families
I'll buy you this and that
Just 'cause you are my friend
Middle-class kids
Never-coming-late kids
Ooh, never-coming-late kids

I'm trying very hard to
Be aware of what I can do
And not to waste my privilege
Because it's not just about me

I'll keep your face in mind
When you found out that
Everybody's poor
When there's no money

It's just this is unjust
We only had the sunny side up

We've been raised on our feet
Fed by the western dream
We've been lucky
We've ignored the human tragedy
You're making 40K
But you will lose your mind
If someone says
We should tax the ultra-wealthy

Your oldest dream was to
Buy a house and car, get used to
Waiting to get old and die soon

You'll make it through again
Everybody's poor
If nobody's poor
You'll make it through again
Everybody's poor
If nobody's poor
You'll make it through again
Everybody's poor
If nobody's poor
You'll make it through again
Everybody's poor
If nobody's poor
