Gettin' screwed - The Road Hammers

I’m busting my redneck

For each dollar of my pay cheque

Just to turn around and watch it

Disappear into thin air

No one can tell me

No slick willie tryin to sell me

Of the notion that I’m gettin my share

Fair and square

Well I’m in the land of plenty

And there’s never quite enough

I’m pinching every penny

And there’s just???

I got one car two jobs

3 kids and 4 months of bills

I got heartache backbreak

Can’t pay for the magic pills

Half of what I make the taxman takes

and I still owe the devil his due

Just a hard working blue collar dude

Gettin' Screwed.

(End)

Well the rich man’s got his money

And his diamond drippin honies

And that rhyme that cost more

Than the house I’d like to buy

Uncle Sam must be jokin

I don’t know what he’s been smokin

If he thinks that we’re all getting

Equal helpings of the pie

Their down there at the country club

Swimming with the big dogs

I’m barely treading water

And I’m croaking like a bull frog

I got one car two jobs

3 kids and 4 months of bills

I got heartache backbreak

Can’t pay for the magic pills

Half of what I make the taxman takes

and I still owe the devil his due

Just a hard working blue collar dude

(End)

Gettin screwed to the wall

Robbing Peter to pay Paul

They whipped me like a???

And I’m just to proud to fall

(Guitar Solo)

I got one car two jobs

3 kids and 4 months of bills

I got heartache backbreak

Can’t pay for the magic pills

Half of what I make the taxman takes

and I still owe the devil his due

Just a hard working blue collar dude

I got one car

2 jobs

3 kids

4 months of bills

I got heartache

Backbreak

Can’t pay

For the magic pills

Half of what I make the taxman takes

and I still owe the devil his due

Just a hard working blue collar dude

Gettin' Screwed

I’m gettin' screwed
