Lyrics
I hate my job, and my ex wife. where the hell did I go wrong in life? Yeah, and who said this country was free? Mandatory overtime. Yet I've got no money, not a f**kin dime Gotta work 7 days just just to breathe. I've worked 48 days straight With no end in sight I've worked 48 days straight Do'in time I've worked 48 days straight Just to get by I've worked 48 days straight Let's get high. Went to college Got my degree But still wound up in this factory. Yeah, my dreams have forsaken me. Machines keep churnin because the plants behind. Our Union sucks, It's the 669 Yeah, you gotta work 7 days just to breathe. I've worked 48 days straight With no end in sight I've worked 48 days straight Do'in time I've worked 48 days straight Just to get by I've worked 48 days straight When she left she stole my car Smashed my whiskey Sold my guitars Man that bitch is killing me, she wont stop till she bleeds me. Maybe I'll go out and get drunk tonight Find a girl that will treat me right we'll light one up behind the bar, make out underneath the stars. Because this world is killing me Gotta work 7 days just to breathe. I've worked 48 days straight With no end in sight I've worked 48 days straight Do'in time I've worked 48 days straight Just to get by I've worked 48 days straight Copyright 2010 Peterson Productions.
