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
