Johnny Paycheck - Me And The I.R.S. lyrics

rate me

Well you can tell them boys at the IRS

This ol' boy, hell I've had enough

The way the big man rakes it in

The little man coughs it up

Well the bite keeps gettin' bigger

And the paycheck keeps gettin' small

You know the IRS, they ain't gonna rest

Til they think they've got it all

They got the bluff on a lotta folks

But honeys I ain't one

From now on, I'm keepin' my pay

Ain't gonna deduct nothin'

Take the 1040 forms and shove 'em

Straighten out their own damn mess

You can write me off

Cuz I ain't givin' a dime to the IRS

How can I keep my arm around my woman

With Uncle Sam's hand in my pants?

If I can't pay the fiddler

Well how the hell am I gonna dance?

I don't mind kickin' in my fair share

I might even back up and say yes

But the big man plays while the little man pays

So the hell with the IRS

They got the bluff on a lotta folks

But honeys I ain't one

From now on, I'm keepin' my pay

Gonna deduct nothin'

Take the 1040 forms and shove 'em

Put 'em where the sun don't shine

You can write me off

Cuz I ain't givin' a dime to the IRS

You can write me off

Cuz I ain't givin' a dime to the IRS
