Keep On Working

(album: Highway To The Sun - 1994)

Monday morning again and the rain's coming down
I got to get out of bed, catch the other bus in town
I can't seem to escape it, living hand to mouth
'Cause if I can't pay my rent I'll be out on the street

If I can't buy food I won't have nothing to eat
So I got to keep on working
Yes I got to keep on working
I got to keep on, keep on working

Ain't dedication keeps my here on the job
It's my financial situation, makes me work like a dog
I gotta get out of here, find my place in the sun
'Cause if I can't buy no food, I won't have nothing to eat
If I can't buy some shoes, I will have nothing on my feet

So I got to keep on working
I got to keep on working
Got to keep on working
Yes, I got to keep on working

I've got the working Blues, make me blow a fuse
Cause my life ain't no, ain't no pleasure cruise
Too many people depending on me
Lord when will these hard times set me free

'Cause if I can't buy some food
They won't have nothing to eat
If I can't pay the rent
We'll all be out on the street
