Tough Job
I ain't gonna flinch
It's a tough job
But somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough state, but somebody's gotta do it
Another day, another pound
I work myself into the ground
I gotta say that life's a bitch
Why does it take so long, I want it all, to be rich
To save ourselves we work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
But I'll do anything to make it through the night
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough state but somebody's gotta do it
Listen to me now
It's a long drop
I think I'm parachuting
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
Another day, another pound
I work myself into the ground
Try to say that life's a bitch
Why does it take so long for me to get rich
To slave all day and work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
Don't you do anything wrong man, you drive mad
Somebody's gotta do it
It's a long drop
I'm gonna say it again
It's a tough state but somebody's gotta do it
It's a long drop
But somebody parachutes it
Listen to me now
I'm almost there, not far away
I won't be square until it pays
I'm almost there, not far away
I won't be square until it pays
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Do anything 'cause I've got to survive
I slave all day amd work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
If I don't do anything I'm gonna drive me mad
Its a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
You got to, you got to, you got to
Everybody, everybody, you got to do it
'Cause some, somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough job but somebody's got to do it
Oh yes it is
It's a long drop, I'll parachute it
It's a tough job
But somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough state, but somebody's gotta do it
Another day, another pound
I work myself into the ground
I gotta say that life's a bitch
Why does it take so long, I want it all, to be rich
To save ourselves we work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
But I'll do anything to make it through the night
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough state but somebody's gotta do it
Listen to me now
It's a long drop
I think I'm parachuting
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
Another day, another pound
I work myself into the ground
Try to say that life's a bitch
Why does it take so long for me to get rich
To slave all day and work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
Don't you do anything wrong man, you drive mad
Somebody's gotta do it
It's a long drop
I'm gonna say it again
It's a tough state but somebody's gotta do it
It's a long drop
But somebody parachutes it
Listen to me now
I'm almost there, not far away
I won't be square until it pays
I'm almost there, not far away
I won't be square until it pays
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Do anything 'cause I've got to survive
I slave all day amd work all night
Some people say that it ain't right
To be a bore is really sad
If I don't do anything I'm gonna drive me mad
Its a tough job but somebody's gotta do it
You got to, you got to, you got to
Everybody, everybody, you got to do it
'Cause some, somebody's gotta do it
It's a tough job but somebody's got to do it
Oh yes it is
It's a long drop, I'll parachute it
