Went down early in the morning
For 300 miles the day
Gonna work hard 'til the evening
But I know I'm gonna take my pay
Hundred things that I must remember man

Hell I keep my concentration
But I already think 'bout my family
That I left at home with pain

I got my business blues
I got my business blues so bad
I got my business blues
Maybe got to find myself for sure

My wife told me on Saturday evening
We'll go out and have a little fun
But I said sorry baby I'm out
'Cause on Sunday I have to work and run
Angry she said your job is not all in life
You have to think about our two kids
And remember that you have a wife
If you forget it, you gonna miss the train

I got my business blues
I got my business blues so bad
I got my business blues
Maybe got to find myself for sure

After that I'm working like a dog
I came right to my limit
Then I fell down on my knees
And told myself, well that's it
Finally I've watched my own life
And I could see that I'm always working
I'm gonna cut my tie with my penknife
And I'll open my own business

I got my business blues
I got my business blues so bad
I got my business blues
Maybe got to find myself for sure

I got my business baby
I got my business
I got my business blues
I got my business baby
I got my business
Got my business blues
I got my business blues so bad yeah
Got my business blues
I got my business blues so bad yeah
