Longer Chain

I don't catch many green lights
Hell, I hardly ever catch a break myself
I'm that guy in that long line
Living by the clock on the bosses wall

I ain't scare getting my hands dirty pulling my own weight
But come Saturday

I let my pay cheque kinda reflect
The aching in my back and the busting my tail takes
I wouldn't mind a little less overtime
I know life ain't no cake all served up a silver plate
No I ain't asking for everything
Just a lot of ball and a longer chain

Now listen, I don't roll up to red lights
Wondering what the guy in the big car makes
And I don't wanna climb his ladder
I'd rather just go on home at the end of the day
Pay my bills and have a little left over spend it on my baby
But come Saturday

I let my pay cheque kinda reflect
The aching in my back and the busting my tail takes
I wouldn't mind a little less overtime
I know life ain't no cake all served up a silver plate
No I ain't asking for everything
Just a lot of ball and a longer chain

(Bridge)

I let my pay cheque kinda reflect
The aching in my back and the busting my tail takes
I wouldn't mind a little less overtime
I know life ain't no cake all served up a silver plate
No I ain't asking for everything
Just a lot of ball and a longer chain
