Ain't Getting Paid Songtext
Good God, baby, I'm doin' my best
Been tryin' to hide out from the IRS
Gave so much interest in the local bank
Ain't got none left for the football game

I'm in over my head
And I'm drownin' in debt

Overtime hours ain't payin' the bills
Tax man's always wantin' his fill
Workin' man like me doesn't have much of a say
My engine's smokin' and my tires are flat
Coulda used that twenty that I spent on gas
Can't give a damn if you ain't got any saved
And I ain't gettin' paid

Good God, baby, I ain't tryin' to be cheap
Don't gotta spend a hundred just for something to eat
Hard to make a dime out of a few cents
When the home I made had the roof cave in

Overtime hours ain't payin' the bills
Tax man's always wantin' his fill
Workin' man like me doesn't have much of a say
My engine's smokin' and my tires are flat
Coulda used that twenty that I spent on gas
Can't give a damn if you ain't got any saved
And I ain't gettin' paid

Hard times make a man strong
But I've been in 'em too long

Overtime hours ain't payin' the bills
Tax man's always wantin' his fill
Workin' man like me doesn't have much of a say
My engine's smokin' and my tires are flat
Coulda used that twenty that I spent on gas
Can't give a damn if you ain't got any saved
And I ain't gettin' paid

My body is busted
Makin' next to nothin'
This prize ain't worth the chase
And I ain't gettin' paid
