| We all go on a two-month tour
|
| Nearly work ourselves sick
|
| Now we don’t know where all the money goes
|
| But we sure ain’t gettin' rich
|
| I think the bad men in New York and LA
|
| Are givin' us the ol' run around
|
| You bring fifty thousand home
|
| And he’s says you’re over drawn
|
| It’ll just about get you down
|
| Just about get ya down
|
| But we keep on pickin' and we keep on singin'
|
| And we try and try to get high so we can keep on grinnin'
|
| Oh you wish you had a home and someone of your own
|
| To love you when you get back in town
|
| But this kinda life don’t cotton to a wife
|
| It’ll just about get you down
|
| Just about get ya down
|
| (Keep on pickin' keep on singin')
|
| (Keep on pickin' keep on singin')
|
| Yeah you got fortune and fame and a well-known name
|
| Aw you’re really flyin' high
|
| Whether you’re rock or country or blues or funky
|
| We’re all made the same inside
|
| Livin' in fear of the later years when nobody’s gonna want you around
|
| Yes the brothers of the road all share the same load
|
| And it’ll just about get you down
|
| If you let it it’ll bring you down
|
| You gotta keep on pickin' you gotta keep on singin'
|
| And you try and you try to stay high so you can keep on grinnin'
|
| You spend a lotta time alone and talkin' on the phone
|
| To the latest love that you found
|
| Then cry over the girl you really wanted in your world
|
| It’ll just about get you down
|
| If you let it it’ll bring you down
|
| Just keep on pickin' just gotta keep on singin'…
|
| Livin' in fear of the later years when nobody’s gonna want you around
|
| Yes the brothers of the road all share the same load
|
| And it’ll just about get you down
|
| Lawd it’s got a lot of us down
|
| But I’m gonna keep on pickin'
|
| You gotta keep on pickin' you gotta keep on singin'… |
