Lyrics Sixty Per Cent - Pete Seeger
I'm
sixty
percent
an
American
I'm
sixty
percent
a
man
That's
what
parity
say
I
am
That's
the
law
of
the
land
Now
do
I
work
sixty
percent
of
each
day?
Eat
sixty
percent
of
my
meals?
And
does
my
truck
take
me
into
town
On
sixty
percent
of
its
wheels?
Now
will
my
chicks
be
content
to
eat
Just
sixty
percent
of
their
mash?
And
will
the
middleman
give
my
throat
Just
sixty
percent
of
a
slash?
Now
all
you
workers
in
city
and
town
I
know
your
budget's
a
mess
But
when
you
get
to
that
last
lousy
buck
Remember
I've
forty
cents
less!
