Blue Collar

There's a job I've been working

It pays me just enough

To fuck me up

And bring me down like a house of cards

Now I'm off and now I'm hurting

So, honey, could you close the blinds

And hold me tight

And keep me warm

Till the morning comes?

It pays a few of the bills

And I take a few of the pills

And wonder if I'm living

Or if I'm just alive

It pays a few of the bills

And I take a few of the pills

And wonder if I'm living

Or if I'm just alive

'Cause I'm as blue as my collar

It's who I am, it's where I'm from

Way down south

Where the lowest of the lows are damned

It's a place unforgiving

A soul sucking son of a bitch

And work seems all there is

It pays a few of the bills

And I take a few of the pills

And wonder if I'm living

Or if I'm just alive

And I wonder if I'm living

Or if I'm just alive

We all wonder if we're living

Or if we're just alive

And I wonder if I'm living

Or if I'm just alive
