I've Got Mine lyrics

Someone's sleeping on the sidewalk

As the winter sun goes down

Someone's drinking cold champagne

In another part of town

And the only thing he thinks about

As he sips his glass of wine

It sure feels good sitting here tonight

Now that I've got mine

I've got mine, I've got mine

This isn't such a bitter world

'Cause I've got mine

Someone's wandering the streets tonight

No way to warm his hands

Someone's turning up their fireplace

Making travel plans

His mind is on some sandy beach

Where the sun is gonna shine

He thinks "I don't have to hang around

Now that I've got mine"

You see them in their limousines

You see the way they stare

They don't see us looking back

Because they don't really care (they say)

I've got mine, I've got mine

The world is as it's meant to be

'Cause I've got mine

So I make a small donation

What more can I do

You know I didn't make this world

I'm in it just like you

I've worked all my life on this house of cards

To keep it all in line

I can't take care of everyone

Now that I've got mine

There's another kind of poverty

That only rich men know

A moral malnutrition

That starves their very souls

And they can't be saved with money

They're all running out of time

And all the while they're thinking

"It's ok 'cause I've got mine"

I've got mine, I've got mine

I don't want a thing to change

'Cause I've got mine, I've got mine.
