You realize this dollar bill you gave me
Ain't hardly worth the page it's printed on
The reason is it isn't lawful money
And the truth is stated plainly in this song
Paper money, paper money
It's a Federal trick without a treat
It's the source of all inflation
And the reasons why your ends don't meet
Our Founding Fathers wrote our Constitution
Which states that only Congress has the right
To print up dollars backed by gold and silver
Which guaranteed the future would be bright
Then Congress signed a contract with some banksters
This happened back in nineteen ten plus three
Those banksters said we'll guard your gold and silver
And issue paper money for a fee
Paper money, bogus money
It's been proven throughout history
It deceives you while it bleeds you
As it leads you down to tyranny
So now we've got this private corporation
Which calls itself the "Federal" Reserve
Whose purpose was to strangle our great nation
And plunder from us wealth they don't deserve
Now those banksters sit on top our gold and silver
Then warn us not to practice guile or greed
Then charge us compound interest on some paper
Which they print up any time they feel the need
Paper money, worthless money
It's a nation's curse since times of old
Things won't ever get no better
'Till we make the Fed give back our gold
Those banksters talk about a New World Order
And why the USA should play their game
Well let's throw those traitors out and lock the border
Before we only have ourselves to blame
Paper money, funny money
It's a ticket stub to tyranny
Gold and silver is the answer
It will reinstate our liberty
We the People have the power
We can reinstate our liberty
We can reinstate our liberty
