Don’t want to work away
Doin’ just what they all say
"work hard boy and you’ll find
One day you’ll have a job like mine"
’cause i know for sure
Nobody should be that poor
To say yes or sink low
Because you happen to say so, say so, you say so
I don’t want to work away
Doing just what they all say
"work hard boy and you’ll find
One day you’ll have a job like mine, job like mine, a job like mine"
"be wise, look ahead
Use your eyes" he said
"be straight, think right
But i might die tonight!"
