Lyrics:
Bobby works a coal mine
Dust in his windpipe
Turned 35 got an 80 year old spine
Sleeps in a double wide, fridge full of booze
He says I gotta get by
What can you do?

I bust my ass
And what do I get?
Another IOU to the IRS
And some DC Devil in a Red Corvette
I sold my soul but I can’t pay rent
80 hours a week
50 years and you die
Doc I can’t sleep
Well here’s a pill to get high
Boss I need a break
But boy you’re mine
I sold my soul to a suit and tie

Brandy works the graveyard down at the Walmart
Doug long hauls in a Mac Truck real far
They’ve got 3 kids and 2 paychecks
A little bit of land and a whole lot of debt

I bust my ass
And what do I get?
Another IOU to the IRS
And some DC Devil in a Red Corvette
I sold my soul but I can’t pay rent
80 hours a week
50 years and you die
Doc I can’t sleep
Well here’s a pill to get high
Boss I need a break
But boy you’re mine
I sold my soul to a suit and tie

It’s blind rat racing
Running through a maze and
They pull all the strings and they keep on taking
Half of my dimes and all of my time
Sold on a dream that turned into a lie

I bust my ass
And what do I get?
Another IOU to the IRS
And some DC Devil in a Red Corvette
I sold my soul but I can’t pay rent
80 hours a week
50 years and you die
Doc I can’t sleep
Well here’s a pill to get high
Boss I need a break
But boy you’re mine
I sold my soul to a suit and tie
