on down the line |
|
Tryin' to make a livin |
|
That's the bottom line |
|
It ain't easy tryin' to stretch |
|
A nickle into a dime |
|
Sweatin' for the dollar |
|
Workin' for the man |
|
Half goes to the |
|
Landlord, lord |
|
And half to uncle sam |
|
I can't get no consolation |
|
I don't get no paid vacation |
|
I can't get no satisfaction |
|
And my tractor don't get no traction |
|
Just doin' the best i can |
|
Tryin' to make a stand |
|
Laughin' and cryin' |
|
Livin' and dyin' on down the line |
|
I'll leave my soul to jesus |
|
I'll give my heart to you |
|
And if you want the rest of me |
|
Well, darlin you can have that too |
|
Only love can save me |
|
So darlin don't be late |
|
If i don't get your lovin soon |
|
I swear i'm gonna die today |
|
I can't get no consolation |
|
I don't get no paid vacation |
|
I can't get no satisfaction |
|
And my tractor don't get no traction |
|
Just doin' the best i can |
|
Just tryin' to make a stand |
|
Laughin' and cryin' |
|
Livin' and dyin' on down the line |
|
If i were a rich girl |
|
It wouldn't be the same |
|
I'd buy me a cadilac |
|
And then i'd change my name |
|
A poor girls dream inside me |
|
And you by my side |
|
We drive into the sunset |
|
Ride sweet baby ride |
|
I can't get no consolation |
|
I don't get no paid vacation |
|
I can't get no satisfaction |
|
And my tractor don't get no traction |
|
Just doin' the best i can |
|
Tryin' to make a stand |
|
Laughin' and cryin' |
|
Livin' and dyin' on down the line |
|
On down the line |
|
On down the line |
