“Rich Men North of Richmond” is Oliver Anthony’s song that addresses the real-life struggles of Americans everywhere. This song came out of nowhere and hit the internet on August 8th like a meteor that exploded everywhere – we’re talking millions of YouTube views in a few days, and it didn’t stop there – tens of millions more they pile up. , along with streams across Spotify and a #1 spot on Apple iTunes. Oliver, a Virginia factory worker who lives off the grid in an RV, wrote the song himself, and it’s hitting home with Americans from all walks of life. In fact, some people watched the video recently and many of them, even men, cried.

But who are those “rich men” that Oliver talks about in the song? Well, according to him, it’s a nod to politicians in Washington, DC

The song begins by describing the day-to-day life of the working man who is out there kicking his ass for a lousy paycheck, but then quite unexpectedly takes a turn and focuses on powerful social issues like child trafficking , well-being and obesity. This surprising twist has sparked substantial conversation and reaction.

Here are the lyrics to the song, compliments of Taste of Country:

I’ve been selling my soul, working all day / Overtime to pay shit / So I can sit out here and lose my life / Drag home and drown my troubles.

Pre-order:
It’s a fucking shame what the world has come to / For people like me and people like you / I wish I could wake up and it wasn’t true / But it is, oh, it is.

Chorus:
Living in the new world / With an old soul / These rich men in north Richmond / Lord knows they all just want total control / They want to know what you think, they want to know what you’re doing / And they think you don’t know, but I know that yes / because your dollar ain’t shit and it’s taxed endlessly / because of the rich men in north richmond.

I wish the politicians would take care of the miners / And not just the minors on an island somewhere / Lord, we have people on the streets, we have nothing to eat / And the welfare of the fat milked.

Well, God, if you’re 5-foot-3 and 300 pounds / Taxes shouldn’t pay for your bags of candy rounds / Young people are getting six feet on the ground / Cause this whole damn country What it does is follow making them fall

Repeat the precor

Repeat the chorus

I’ve been selling my soul, working all day/Overtime to pay shit.

Here is the full video which now has over 17 million views on YouTube.

The bottom line is that this song is resonating normal people from all walks of life and backgrounds because they relate to letters. As our country goes down the tubes thanks to the greed of globalist oligarchs, ordinary people feel the pain as the value of the dollar swirls down the drain, said oligarchs break the law with impunity, and a web of totalitarian slaves of the state. following the confinement of the COVID-19. Anthony is singing the blues of today, and anyone with a heart and a brain can relate (this excludes a lot of people on the left and even some right-wing dunderheads).

It’s amazing how music can bring us all together. Songs like this and Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town” might even play a role in healing our country. For now, we’ll leave you with this: It’s us versus the rich men in North Richmond. If we stand together, we win, and they know it…that’s why they keep us divided. Don’t take the bait.
