There comes a time in every life |
|
You grow up and move away |
|
Or you can say that you're satisfied |
|
And grow old here and stay |
|
But things ain't really takin' off |
|
And everybody here can see |
|
I watch 'em pack their cars and run |
|
But that ain't gonna be me |
|
Cause these desperate times will break you |
|
Made a mess of a less of a man |
|
It's too late now for me to go changin' |
|
So I'm holding out as long as I can |
|
What don't kill you only makes you stronger |
|
And I pray to God that I can survive |
|
And come out on the other end, we're living in desperate times |
|
I got a boy in elementary school |
|
And another on the way |
|
My wife quit her job to stay at home |
|
So I start another one in May |
|
But don't think that I'm complaining, man |
|
There's more than mouths I gotta feed |
|
Hell, the truth is I depend on them |
|
Way more than they depend on me |
|
And these desperate times will break you |
|
Made a mess of a less of a man |
|
It's too late now for me to go changin' |
|
So I'm holding out as long as I can |
|
What don't kill you only makes you stronger |
|
And I pray to God that I can survive |
|
And come out on the other end, we're living in desperate times |
|
And these desperate times will break you |
|
Made a mess of a less of a man |
|
It's too late now for me to go changin' |
|
So I'm holding out as long as I can |
|
What don't kill you only makes you stronger |
|
And I pray to God that I can survive |
|
And come out on the other end, we're living in desperate times |
|
Desperate times |
|
These desperate times |
