Work, work, work, day after day Fifty hour week, forty hour pay Not time to get over on this overtime Yea I'm always runnin', I'm always runnin' behind I got a Friday night date with my sweetheart I'm already late and the car won't start Lord, I feel like hittin that car and cryin' Yes I'm always runnin', I'm always runnin' behind All my life it's been this way One dollar short and one day late One rung lower on the ladder I'm tryin to climb If I ever get lucky, if I ever get rich Gonna tow my life up out of this ditch Watch the world go by while I unwind Yeah I'm always running, But I'm always runnin' behind
