Like us all you want, the very best advice
A car, a house a neighborhood, that's nice
Flowers and trees and lots of little kids around
Where public schools are breeding grounds for vice.

Country turns its lonely him, Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne

A piece of the pie

A piece of the pie
It's all we're asking for
A piece of the pie
