Lyrics

Take a Break
John P. Legg © 2006

V1:
Punch in early, punch out late
Puttin? in my forty-eight, on a job lately I hate
But can?t afford to quit

V2:
Feels like I?m doin? time
Servin? 99
On a Sentence for a crime
I did not commit

So I could use some R&R, nowhere near, but somewhere far
Any place that I can be?free (echoes)

Ch:
A white-sand island beach, a cabin in the woods
A mountainous retreat, now that would do me good
A cruise ship on the sea, a bass-boat on a lake
Sounds like a plan to me?think I?ll take a break

V3:
I show up rain or shine
On that ol? assembly line
But I think the boss man?s blind
Or he just don?t care

V4:
That I?m always behind
Earn dollar save a dime
Buried so deep I?m
Running out of air

So I could use some R&R, nowhere near, but somewhere far
Any place that I can be?free (echoes)

Ch:
A white-sand island beach, a cabin in the woods
A mountainous retreat, now that would do me good
A cruise ship on the sea, a bass-boat on a lake
Sounds like a plan to me?.think I?ll take a break

Bridge:
There?s got to be a better way, than this all work and no play?hey

Chorus?I think I?ll take?Chorus
