[00:00:00] New York Banker - Todd Snider

[00:00:01] Written by：Mike Osheowitz/Todd Snider

[00:00:24] All these years arkansas teachin' at the high school

[00:00:31] How was I to know by retirement day

[00:00:35] I'd learn a lesson so cruel

[00:00:39] I came to the day I had waited on

[00:00:42] Just to find out all the money in our pension was gone

[00:00:46] We invested in somethin' called the abacus bond

[00:00:50] Sold to us by a New York banker

[00:00:56] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:01:04] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:01:19] A big time banker from New York city

[00:01:23] Came down south one day

[00:01:26] Sold our people on the bond

[00:01:28] Had our money bettin' on some kinda

[00:01:31] Home loans getting' paid

[00:01:34] Buy it they say we were clearly told

[00:01:38] This kinda thing was even safer than gold

[00:01:42] But later on we found out the bond we'd been sold

[00:01:45] Had been set up to fail all along

[00:01:50] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:01:57] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:02:50] We'd been set up to fail all along

[00:02:53] Though none of our people had ever quite sensed it

[00:02:57] Come to find out the bond born to fail'd been built

[00:03:01] So that banker could bet his bread against it

[00:03:05] When the house market crashed our retirement did too

[00:03:09] Everybody said there was nothing we could do

[00:03:13] That banker walked off with a million or two

[00:03:17] I'm still teachin' at the high school

[00:03:21] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:03:28] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:03:44] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:03:51] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people

[00:03:59] Good things happen to bad people bad people bad people
