There just ain't nothing giving I just can't catch a break My life's in prohibition My baby's on the make-through road The world is tough Lord, I need some more money Gotta keep my feet on the ground My car's a rusty vessel My shoulders feel like lead Too scared to call the doctor The world is tough Lord, I need some more money Gonna keep my feet on the ground Got scores through all my credit cards Red letters on my checks Alimony seven's pay God knows what's next The world is tough But it don't do to be moping around Lord, I need some more money Gonna keep my feet on the ground All right, so So I've lost my ambition Living in the past Living in a matchbox I'm desperate to scratch Tired of livin' solo, lonely as a clown When I look in the wishin' well Only see the long way down The world is dull But it don't do to be moping around It's gonna keep my feet on the ground The world is tough The world is tough, yeah The world is tough The world is tough Lord, I need some more money Gonna keep my feet on the ground Bye
