Our Song

I guess I’ll have to leave this home of mine girl
I’ll just have to find myself a job
The children haven’t eaten for a week now
I just don’t know what’s going on
Another day another conversation
Things can’t go on the way they are
I guess I’ll have to join the congregation
And pray that things don’t go a might too far
Life gets harder everyday
Poor man’s got to find a way
Working hard trying to get as much money as I can
Travel far, waiting for the work to come in
I’d like to work each day
But if I try you know I might end up in a graveyard
Life gets harder everyday
Poor man’s got to find a way
I wish I had two dimes to rub together
I haven’t seen a cent in many a day
I’d like to buy a ticket for the station
But I haven’t got the money yet to pay
Life gets harder everyday
Poor man’s got to find a way
Life gets harder everyday
Poor man’s got to find a way
