Trying, tired but I'm trying
But still I've been climbing, no, I can't see the top
Old man, can he help me understand?
Why I'm on this planet? How do you know when to stop?

Working for a dollar, well, that's how you make a man feel broke
Working for a dollar, that's the only thing I know

Just drive an ol' Ford, count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more, leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid, don't give 'em your best days
Only so many left, save some of 'em up for ones worth
Saving 'em for

Patience, I've run out of patience
I need a vacation, I need out of this shift
Skydive, maybe see how fast I can drive
Too young to not feel alive, and I'm caught in a ditch

Passin' me a bottle, old man starts rolling his own smoke
Says he lost me at dollar, here's the only thing I know

Just drive an ol' Ford, count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more, leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid, don't give 'em your best days
Only so many left, save some of 'em up for ones worth
Saving 'em for

Once you find you love, you hold them close and say her name
No amount of money's gonna make you feel the same
Can't you see? Can't you see?

Just drive an ol' Ford, count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more, leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid, don't give 'em your best days
Only so many left, save some of 'em up for ones worth
Saving 'em for
