Unless you’re Donald Trump or Bill Gates you can probably relate to this song.
Everything goes up but wages.
I’ve got a beat up brown Chevrolet four wheel drive
My bumper is chrome my tires are big and wide
But gas has gone so high I can’t even afford to drive
Times like these man it’s sure getting hard to survive
Times like these man it’s sure getting hard to survive
I go to work each morning and I'm starting to wonder why
Busting my hump just to send it all down the line
Well I'm going to the country going to leave it all far behind
And when they knock on my door I'm sure going to be hard to find
Last night I went down to my local grocery store
A hundred dollar bill don’t buy much to eat no more
My idea of lean cuisine is cornbread and pinto beans
Times like these man it’s sure hard to make ends meet
Times like these man it’s sure getting hard to survive
I go to work each morning and I’m starting to wonder why
Busting my hump just to send it all down the line
Well I’m going to the country going to leave it all far behind
And when they knock on my door I’m sure going to be hard to find
So I went to the banker to ask for just a little more time
He said I can’t give you none son your already to far behind
Well I owe everybody I know the well has done gone dry
Time like these it’s a struggle man just to get by
Times like these man it’s sure getting hard to survive
I go to work each morning and I’m starting to wonder why
Busting my hump just to send it all down the line
Well I’m going to the country going to leave it all far behind
And when they knock on my door I’m sure going to be hard to find
