Tired |
My name is Jackson, I was named after my father |
Followed in his footsteps, down here to this factory |
I aren’t complaining, wouldn’t waste my breath to bother |
This work aren’t hard, it’s only boring as can be |
Married Rebecca back in seventy-seven |
I still love her and I guess she loves me too |
We go to church on Sundays 'cause we want to go to heaven |
Me and my family, aren’t that how you’re supposed to do |
But I’m tired, Lord I’m tired |
Life is wearing me smooth down to the bone |
No rest for the weary, you just move on |
Tired, Lord I’m tired |
I’ve only missed six days in nigh on twenty years o' work |
The money went to taxes and these bills I’ve paid on time |
The raise I got two months ago don’t meet the cost o' living |
Selling my body for these nickels and these dimes |
The smell of Becky’s coffee rolled me out of bed this morning |
I showered and shaved and dressed and pulled my work boots on |
Walked in the kitchen, she was staring out the window |
The way she said good morning made me ask is something wrong |
She said I’m tired, woke up tired |
Life is wearing me smooth down to the bone |
No rest for the weary, you just move on |
I guess you just keep going till your gone |
Tired, Lord I’m tired |
Tired, Lord I’m tired |
