| (Intro)
Up by nine, hit the grind, play the game, it's all the same Up by nine, hit the grind, play the game, it's all the same (Verse 1) Chains of the morning are pulling me Chiseling away reality Working, working cramps my style Hammering away at the old rock pile Work those fingers to the bone Soak those fingers when you get home Makes me crawl, makes me itch Pinching pennies on a sinking ship (Chorus) Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Work, work (everyday), work, work Work, work (everyday), work, work (Verse 2) Land of milk and honey where the streets were paved in gold And so many died, those who survive, they had to work Land of opportunity, the land of promises While people cry through hard times, they had to work Work to make it better, work to survive Working for the future, work to stay alive (Chorus) Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Work, work (everyday), work, work Work, work (everyday), work, work (Bridge) Up by nine, hit the grind, play the game, it's all the same Up by nine, hit the grind, play your game, it's all the same (Chorus) Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Everyday is work, work Drives a man totally berserk I've been living on a sinking ship Slaving the galley with a cracking whip Everyday is work... |
