lyrics

workinn' my hands to the bone to get the dough
roll with it once watch how fast it go
runs away faster then i can make it appear
ill be back grind soon my dear

the harder i work, the quicker its gone
the quicker its gone,
its all just to quicken the rate of the pace to the grave

the early bird gets the worm, they said, its true
i go get the worm, but i burn the oil too
don't take a break or stop for a cigarette
before the breaks over i'll probably forget

buyin' things you don't need with the money you don't have
bills piie up and the collector is getting mad
ain't even got the cash to cover the rate
another month gone, another bill paid late

every day get a little bit longer
every night get a little bit colder
having a hell of a time
trying to keep myself in line
no matter how i try
i can't keep money off my mind
