I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gotta find a way to the top
When you think you're on a roll
This life will do a number
Wonder why it never stops
If this day to day throws me one more thing
I think I'm gonna lose my mind
That's why I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gonna leave it all behind

Yesterday I worked for 10 long hours
Just trying hard to get my share
cnother bill was due and I had to pay
But the money wasn't there
Oh I went to bed with my eyes all red
cnd I woke up ragged today
Now it's time to turn around and punch back in
It's enough to make a body say

I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gotta find a way to the top
When you think you're on a roll
This life will do a number
Wonder why it never stops
If this day to day throws me one more thing
I think I'm gonna lose my mind
That's why I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gonna leave it all behind

Tomorrow's already on my mind
cnother thing that's hanging over my head
When I turn the key will the car come on
Or the engine light instead
Oh and if it starts it's gonna break my heart ‘cause
The traffic on the interstate
Feels like another job before I get to work
It's enough to make a body say





I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gotta find a way to the top
When you think you're on a roll
This life will do a number
Wonder why it never stops
If this day to day throws me one more thing
I think I'm gonna lose my mind
That's why I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gonna leave it all behind

Today I gotta keep my head on straight
‘Cause I don't have time to slow down
Gotta dry my tears keep my vision clear
So I can get where I'm going now
This day to day's got me working nights
cnd putting in overtime
So I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gonna leave it all behind

I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gotta find a way to the top
When you think you're on a roll
This life will do a number
Wonder why it never stops
If this day to day throws me one more thing
I think I'm gonna lose my mind
That's why I'm gettin' over gettin' out from under
Gonna leave it all behind
