Paycheck Man

Another sack of groceries

Another tank of gas

These days a dollar it goes to quick

Man, it just don't last

Always something, can't catch a break

Ain't no saving for a rainy day

I'm a paycheck man

Working hired hand

I'd take this job and shove it but i just can't

Gettin' up out of bed

Keepin' them babies fed

Never gonna get ahead

But there ain't no quittin' doing all i can

I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man

Broke-down back, hell just my luck

I tried to call in sick but the boss man says

"Son, you better show up."

So I bite my tongue and I check my pride

And I punch that clock, ya'll, that's just the life

I'm a paycheck man

Working hired hand

I'd take this job and shove it but i just can't

Gettin' up out of bed

Keepin' them babies fed

Never gonna get ahead

But there ain't no quittin' doing all i can

I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man

Well, folks like us are the heartbeat of this great land

Puttin' in more than we getting back

Workin' overtime for uncle sam

I'm a paycheck man

Working hired hand

I'd take this job and shove it but i just can't

Gettin' up out of bed

Keepin' them babies fed

Never gonna get ahead

But there ain't no quittin' doing all i can

I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man

I'm a paycheck man
