Cost of Living - Half Pint

Cost of Living Lyrics

Everything to know about me
Is written on this page
The number you can reach me
My social and my age
Yes I served in the army
Its where I learned to shoot
Eighteen months in the desert
Pourin sand out of my boots
No Ive 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 dont know
I catch on real quick
I work weekends
If I have to
Nights and holidays

Give you 40
And then some
Whatever it takes
Three dollars and change at the pump
Cost of livins 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
Gave my last job everything
Before it headed south
Took the shoes off of my children's feet
The food out of their mouths
Yesterday my folks offered to help
But theyre barely getting by themselvesI got a strong back
Steel toes
I rarely call in sick
A good truck
What I dont know
I catch on real quick
I work weekends
If I have to
Nights and holidays
Give you 40
And then some
Whatever it takes
Four dollars and change at the pump
Cost of livins high and goin up.I'm sure a hundred others have applied
Rumor has it you're only takin' fiveI got a strong back
Steel toes
I'm handy with a wrench
There's nothing I can't drive
Nothing I can't fix
I work sun-up to sun-down
Ain't too proud to sweep the floors
Bank has started calling
And the wolves are at my door
Four dollars and change at the pump
Cost of livins high and goin up.
