|
This back-breakin', bone-shakin', belly-achin', hard-workin' |
|
Two more hours to go |
|
Yes, it's keeping me alive doin' nine to five |
|
And I ain't got nothin to show |
|
Pretty soon I'll be leavin' |
|
With the wages I'm receivin' |
|
But I know it's gonna be all right |
|
Come on, babe, and take me away |
|
We got some money to spend tonight |
|
Pick me up at the station |
|
Meet me at the train |
|
Have a meal and a shower and a change of clothes |
|
I can't afford a vacation |
|
But I can take the strain |
|
Long as I can be with you |
|
Find a way to burn it as quickly as I earn it |
|
Yes, it's back-breakin', bone-shakin', belly-achin', hard-workin' |
|
Two more hours to go |
|
Seven long years for the same corporation |
|
And I ain't got nothin' to show |
|
And tonight when I'm leavin' I'll be just breakin' even |
|
But I know it's gonna be all right |
|
I shake off my blues when you put on your shoes |
|
We got some money to spend tonight |
|
Oh, I don't wanna stand here and sound accusin' |
|
Everybody does their share of losin' |
|
If I'm gonna lose it I might as well be doin' it right |
|
Pick me up at the station |
|
Meet me at the train |
|
Have a meal and a shower and a change of clothes |
|
I can't afford a vacation |
|
But I can take the strain |
|
Long as I can be with you |

Find a way to burn it as quickly as I earn it |
