12 Hour Days
My bills are paid, I've got some money savedBut It's been a week since I've seen my baby's faceToo much caffeine, and nicotineNeed a double shot of whiskey just to get to sleepI can't complain, I just need to find a wayTo break this chain of 12 hour daysI've worked down here, going on 10 yearsBut it's hard for me to call it a career'cause it's hour by hour, and check to checkEveryday I have to earn the man's respectI've heard him say there's lines of guys to take my placeUp on this string of 12 hour daysChorus:I can't slow down, I can't fall behindLast thing I need is a place in the unemployment lineI've got needs, and I've still got dreamsBut it's family that means the most to meSo I do my job, and when I can I restAnd I'll do better with what little time is leftI should give thanks, and be proud of the life I've madeSo tonight I pray for more 12 hour daysThem long 12 hour days
