Paroles de Working man can't get nowhere today

For years i've been bustin' my rear
To make a livin' but it ain't made
For years i've been tryin' to pay off my bills
But they ain't paid

Oh, every dime i make, every soul i know
The higher up i reach, the further down i go
And this old broken back of mine is all i've got to show
And anyway

A working man can't get nowhere today
Lord, a working man can't get nowhere today
A working man ain't go no time to play
Today i work my (incomprehensible) leave it lay
A working man can't get nowhere today

I pay my income tax and the government gives back
What i got coming, lord, it ain't much
I pay my child support 'cause i'm a law abiding soul
And an easy touch (incomprehensible) starve myself to death

Kinda keep my family fit, i keep my budget tight
Kinda get myself ahead
But i'd still be deep in debt
The day that i fall dead, that's why i say

Lord, a working man can't get nowhere today
A working man can't get nowhere today
A working man ain't go no time to play
Tonight i work my (incomprehensible) leave it lay
A working man can't get nowhere today
A working man can't get nowhere today
