| I work in a big supermarket in L. A
|
| And earn every dollar I spend
|
| I own my own car but I’m not very happy
|
| I don’t go to school with my friends
|
| Some people they say that I have no ambition
|
| A failure I’m destined to be
|
| But money’s important when you haven’t any
|
| So I dropped out to get what I need
|
| For I have to take care of me
|
| I work every day so I miss education
|
| There’s no one around to help me
|
| This spring I’ll attend all my friends' graduation
|
| But there’ll be no diploma for me
|
| Some people they say that I have no ambition
|
| A failure I’m destined to be
|
| But money’s important when you haven’t any
|
| So I dropped out to get what I need
|
| For I have to take care of me
|
| Some people they say that I have no ambition
|
| A failure I’m destined to be
|
| But money’s important when you haven’t any
|
| So I dropped out to get what I need
|
| For I have to take care of me
|
| I dropped out to get what I need
|
| For I have to take care of me
|
| I dropped out to get what I need… |
