I own the coal mine.  I own the jail.
I own the county judge who sets your bail.

I own the factory.  I own the mills.
I own the company bank where you pay your bills.

And I – I – own you.
Oh, I – I – I own you.

Pay me my tributes.  Pay me your debts.
What I leave behind is all you get.

Work like a madman.  Bow to the throne.
You should give me thanks for all the bones.

‘Cause, I – I – own you.
Yeah, I – I – I own you.

Ya think ya got freedom.  Ya think ya got rights.
I own the levers that move the might.

I own the White House.  I own the Hill.
I own the courts and armies that keep you still.

And I – I – own you.
Oh, I – I – I own you.

You can march ‘till your feet hurt.  Shout all you want.
Do you really think you can make me stop?

When I own the money.  And I own the land.
And I own the very ground on which you stand.

I – I – own you.
Oh, I – I – I own you.
