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 |
