Trying to Make a Living

作曲 : Bill Leverty/C.J. Snare

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

HeyNot 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
