Another sack of groceries, another tank of gas
These days a dollar it goes too quick, man it just don't last
Always something, can't catch a break
Ain't no saving for a rainy day
Well, I'm a paycheck man, working hired hand
I'd take this job and shove it but I just can't
Gettin' up out of bed, keepin' them babies fed
Never gonna get ahead
But there ain't no quittin' doing all I can
I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man
Broke down back, hell just my luck
I tried to call in sick but the boss man says
Son, you better show up
So I bite my tongue
And I check my pride
And I punch that clock y'all, that's just the life of a
Paycheck man, working hired hand
I'd take this job and shove it but I just can't
Gettin' up out of bed, keepin' them babies fed
Never gonna get ahead
But there ain't no quittin' doing all I can
I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man
Well, folks like us are the heartbeat of this great land
Puttin' in more than we getting back
Workin' overtime for uncle Sam
Well, I'm a paycheck man, working hired hand
I'd take this job and shove it but I just can't,
No, I just can't
Gettin' up out of bed, keepin' them babies fed
Never gonna get ahead
But there ain't no quittin' doing all I can
I gotta make a livin', I'm a paycheck man
I'm a paycheck man
