Lyrics

Too Long ? Too Hard ? For Too Little Money
(Charles Allen Bouton, Mike Lounibos, Tim Remmert)


Deeper in debt - over my head
Profound anxiety
The landlady?s out there banging on my front door
I can?t get no sleep
I paid that woman a month ago
and she?s already screaming for more
My refrigerator?s starving - the oven?s got a cold
Man when it rains it pours (I?m working)

Chorus:
Too long ? too hard ? for too little money
Got my nose to the grind stone every single day
Working in the hot sun ? shoveling away
Money?s gone before I ever get paid
I?m working
too long ? too hard ? for too little money

One of these days I?m gonna be the big shot
Buy the baddest truck you?ve ever seen
Kick my feet up on my Boss man?s desk
Have that `ol boy working for me
I?ll give him a shovel - and a kick in the butt
and send him out on the line
Pop me a cold one right in his face
Give him a taste of my life (I?m working)

Chorus:

Bridge:
Working too long - working too hard
Working for the day when it all pays off
too long ? too hard ? for too little money

Instrumental:
I?m working too long ? too hard ? for too little money
I?m working too long ? too hard ? for too little money
(ad lib)
Hey boys we?re working awful hard today ain?t we?
And guess what - we gotta get up and do it again in the morning
