Tired Of Living

Well I'm tired of livin'
and I'm scared of dyin'

I can't get ahead
and there's no use a tryin'

Things would better change
and I ain't a lyin'

somethin' better happen pretty soon

Yeah the people workin' around
and everyday are gettin' promotion
and raisin' pay

But I keep a workin'
the same old way
and somethin' better happen pretty soon

Yeah the man next door
owns a forty room shack

Rides around ever day in a big Cadillac

But I'm still walkin' that's a fact
seems somethin' better happen pretty soon
Well I'm tired of livin'...

[ fiddle - steel ]

Well everybody's got a girl to call his own
but I keep on a livin' all alone

Like a king without a throne
somethin' better happen pretty soon

Well my brother Bill he's a never broke
he hasn't worked a lick
and that ain't no joke

If things don't change I'm afraid I'll croak somethin' better happen pretty soon

Yeah I'm tired of livin'...
