Cost Of Livin'

Everythin' to know about me

Is written on this page

A number you can reach me

My social and my age

Yes, I served in the army

It's where I learned to shoot

Eighteen months in the desert

Pourin' sand out of my boots

No, I've never been convicted of a crime

I could start this job at any time

I got a strong back, steel toes

I rarely call in sick, a good truck

What I don't know I catch on real quick

I work weekends, if I have to, nights and holidays

Give you forty and then some

Whatever it takes

Three dollars and change at the pump

The cost of livin's high and goin' up

I put Robert down as a reference

He's known me all my life

We attend the same church

He introduced me to my wife

I gave my last job everythin'

Before it headed south

Took the shoes off of my children's feet

Food out of their mouths

Yesterday my folks offered to help

But they're barely gettin' by themselves

I got a strong back, steel toes

I rarely call in sick, a good truck

What I don't know I catch on real quick

I work weekends, if I have to, nights and holidays

Give you forty and then some

Whatever it takes

Four dollars and change at the pump

The cost of livin's high and goin' up

I'm sure a hundred others have applied

Rumor has it you're only takin' five

I got a strong back, steel toes

I'm handy with a wrench

There's nothin' I can't drive

Nothin' I can't fix

I work sunup to sundown

Ain't too proud to sweep the floors

The bank has started callin'

And the wolves are at my door

Four dollars and change at the pump

The cost of livin's high and goin' up
