You go to work, work hard all day |
|
At the end of the week, you collect your pay |
|
That's just where it's at |
|
It's as simple as that |
|
You pay your bills the best that you can |
|
But the rising cost sure hurts a family man |
|
While the rich man gets fat |
|
It's as simple as that |
|
And the money goes so fast it ain't funny |
|
Your mind's made up to get that house on the hill |
|
But you just don't know if you ever will |
|
Because you can't get the cash |
|
It's as simple as that |
|
Cause the man from the bank, he won't give you a loan |
|
Without putting a morgage on all that you own |
|
A tit for a tat |
|
It's a simple as that |
|
And the money goes so fast it ain't funny |
|
Before you know it the kids are all grown |
|
And married off with kids of their own |
|
And it's all in the past |
|
It's as simple as that |
|
You've reached the autumn of your life |
|
And all that's left is you and your wife |
|
And a dog and a cat |
|
It's as simple as that |
|
And the money goes so fast it ain't funny |
