Time's Gettin' Tougher Than Tough |
Well, money’s getting cheaper, prices getting steeper |
Found myself a woman, but I just couldn’t keep her |
Time’s getting tougher than tough |
Things getting rougher than rough |
I make a lot of money, I just keep spending the stubs |
I can’t afford to live, but I guess I’ll have to try |
Undertakers got a union and it cost too much to die |
Time’s getting tougher than tough |
Things getting rougher than rough |
I make a lot of money, I just keep spending the stubs |
Well, politicians are telling folks to cut out on their meat |
Why don’t they cut the prices and let the people eat? |
Time’s getting tougher than tough |
Things getting rougher than rough |
I make a lot of money, I just keep spending the stubs |
I can’t afford to live, but I guess I’ll have to try |
Undertakers got a union and it cost too much to die |
Time’s getting tougher than tough |
Things getting rougher than rough |
I make a lot of money, I just keep spending the stubs |
