The Walmart Family Way
Why, hello, this is Sam Walton.
Our stores have gotten a bad rap lately,
so I thought I'd sing a song
about what it means to be a part of the Walmart Family.
Our employees don't mind we pay them just dimes.
They're happy to pass savings on to you--
and help me build swimming pools.
Our employees don't mind that constant smile.
They're happy to grin from ear to ear--
'cause I fill them with layoff fear.
Our employees don't need health insurance.
We've got bandaids on aisle five;
and I get a life insurance payout if they die.
Well, it takes slaves to build an empire.
But I'm willing to pay a living wage--
if you work overtime and all holidays.
'Cause that's the Walmart Family way.
