Paying My Way

歌詞

Well, you can't just get what you want Without a little work today And you can't just stick out your hand No, it doesn't work that way Yeah, it's gonna be a long one I'll be workin' all night long Oh, it's gonna be a long one But I'm paying my way And there's not much joy in the work Unless you're born to do it, they say And we gotta get down in the dirt now If we wanna see some change Oh, it's gonna be a long one Yeah, I'll be workin' all night long Yeah, it's gonna be a long one But I'm paying my way And the heart is sliding backward On this long dark night of the soul And you're the only thing that keeps me going on It's gonna be a long one I been workin' my fingers to the bone Yeah, it's gonna be a long one But I'm paying my way Paying my way Well, there's not much change in the weather On this long walk home to you in the rain And there's not much left in the purse now By the time the bills are paid Oh, it's gonna be a long one Can't wait for that weekend to roll along Yeah, it's gonna be a long one But I'm paying my way Oh, it's gonna be a long one Wanna take you out dancin' all night long Oh, it's gonna be a long one But I'm paying my way Paying my way I work for fair pay Yeah, I'm paying my way
