The preacher in the pulpit
- he takes a Christian stand
He says, charity begins at home
- you've got to help your fellow man
But he's got himself a Cadillac
- and and penthouse suite so fine
He pats himself upon the back
- and says, I've got mine

Refrain
I've got mine - I've got mine
Charity begins at home
- and I've got mine
That take all this for granted
- when they draw that moral line
It wasn't God who planned
- it's just that I got mine

The lawyer in the courtroom
- talks like Charles Evans Hughes
But get him in the boardroom
- and he'll change his point of view
Enlightened by self-interest
- he makes a point so fine
He's a blind man for Ayn Rand
- singin' I've got mine

The street kid on the sidewalk
- with hardware in his nose
A skinny puppy on a string
- Salvation Army clothes
He asks you for some money
- a nickle or a dime
You flip that kid a twenty and tell him
- I've got mine
