0:48Well I woke up this mornin' pulled myself out of bed
0:53I wish that I could sleep the day away
0:57Just a day like any other same old thing over and over
1:03I'm overworked and underpaid
1:11And it's killin' me
1:16Hey
1:26Not even breakin' even work my fingers to the bone
1:31Barely gettin' by keeps gettin' harder
1:35I'm slavin' on the grindstone and I get no breaks at all
1:40Tryin' to keep my head above the water
1:45Can't make ends meet can't even save a dime
1:50Feels like I spend my life workin' overtime
1:54Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent
1:58Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went
2:03Never seem to get ahead it's getting' easier to see
2:08Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea
2:21Times are gettin' tough seems I never make enough
2:25Doing what I can to stay alive
2:30And I'd like to take a day off but I can't afford a layoff
2:35I gotta keep this damn job to survive
2:40Hey can't make ends meet I can't even save a dime
2:45Feels like I spend my life workin' overtime
2:48Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent
2:53Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went
2:58Never seem to get ahead it's getting' easier to see
3:03Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea
3:10Killin' me well yea
3:49Ooh hoo yea yea
3:53Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent
3:57Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went
4:02Never seem to get ahead it's gettin' easier to see
4:07Just tryin' to make a livin'
4:10Tryin' to make a livin'
4:12Tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea
4:19Killin' me
Well I woke up this mornin' pulled myself out of bed I wish that I could sleep the day away Just a day like any other same old thing over and over I'm overworked and underpaid And it's killin' me Hey Not even breakin' even work my fingers to the bone Barely gettin' by keeps gettin' harder I'm slavin' on the grindstone and I get no breaks at all Tryin' to keep my head above the water Can't make ends meet can't even save a dime Feels like I spend my life workin' overtime Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went Never seem to get ahead it's getting' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea Times are gettin' tough seems I never make enough Doing what I can to stay alive And I'd like to take a day off but I can't afford a layoff I gotta keep this damn job to survive Hey can't make ends meet I can't even save a dime Feels like I spend my life workin' overtime Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went Never seem to get ahead it's getting' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea Killin' me well yea Ooh hoo yea yea Tryin' to make a livin' gotta pay the rent Just tryin' to make a livin' wonder where my money went Never seem to get ahead it's gettin' easier to see Just tryin' to make a livin' Tryin' to make a livin' Tryin' to make a livin' and it's killin' me yea Killin' me
