I wish the governor
Would just leave the poor man alone
He's messing up my home
I wish the governor y'all
Would just leave the poor man alone
He's screwing up my home

You know my taxes are gettin' too high
I can't pay the rent
Oh Lord, how can I make it by?
My woman wanna leave
They cut off the phone
Now I got to spend all of my nights alone

I wish the governor would leave me alone
He's messing up my home
I wish the governor y'all
Would just leave the poor man alone
He's messing up my home

I went down to the grocery store
They got a food tax
I got to sleep on the floor
Tired of workin' three jobs
But I know the governor
He ain't got it so hard, so hard

I wish the governor
(Oh Lord)
Would just leave me alone
(I'm doing alright out here by myself)
I wish the governor

(Would get his hands out of my pocket)
Would just leave me alone
I ain't bothering nobody
(Here we go)

I wish the governor
All you folks down there in Washington DC
I wish you would just leave me alone
You know I need to go to work
And get some money for the baby

I wish the governor
All y'all up on capitol hill
I know you gettin' your thrills
But I just want you to leave me alone

Me and my cat and my dog
And my car in the garage
Just leave us alone
You know I get nervous
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Leave my mother and my brother
Why don't you just leave us alone
I'm gonna say goodbye now
