I Earn My Life

I′ll quit my job the day I die

I'll quit my job the day I die

I break my back and never cry

I break my back and never cry

I′m losing all my hair, losing all my hair

I'm losing all my hair because a man provides

I'm standing on a chair, standing on a chair

I′m standing on a chair because I earn my life

I earn my life, I earn my life

I learned it from my father and tell it to my wife

Jesus Christ, don′t tell me not to hurry

I wouldn't be so worried if I wasn′t always right

While you're asleep I′m terrified

While you're asleep I′m terrified

I see the end before my eyes

I see the end before my eyes

A marker on a grave, marker on a grave

Marker on a grave and I know I'm the one who died

And underneath the name, underneath the name

Underneath my name it says, "He Earned His Life"

I earn my life, I earn my life

I learned it from my father my father never lied

Jesus Christ, better learn how to forage

Utilities and mortgage are all that will survive

I wish my life was on a graph

So I knew how much left I have to earn tonight

It burns too bright

I think about my self a lot 'cause it′s the only one I′ve got

I've earned this life

What have I done to earn this life?

I earn my life, I earn my life

I learned it from my father and tell it to my wife

Jesus Christ, don′t tell me not to hurry

I wouldn't be so worried if I wasn′t always right

'Cause I earn my life, I earn my life

I learned it from my father and my father never lied

Jesus Christ, we better learn how to forage

Utilities and mortgage are all that will survive

Utilities and mortgage are all that will survive
