1) I JUST WANT TO GET A LITTLE MORE OUT OF MY PAY DAY
FIND ME AN OL' CAR THAT DOESN'T BREAK DOWN ON THE FREEWAY
A LITTLE VACATION, AIN'T ASKIN' VERY MUCH
2) I HATE COMIN' HOME TO THIS OL' BROKEN DOWN APARTMENT
I WISH I HAD A DIME FOR EVERY HOLE THAT'S IN THE CARPET
OH, I DON'T WANT IT ALL, BUT I AIN'T GOT ENOUGH
Chorus: ALL I WANT IS A LIFE
'DRINK FROM THE GLASS FROM A WELL THAT AIN'T DRY
ALL I WANT IS A LIFE
3) I DON'T MIND THE HOURS AND THE PAIN THAT COMES FROM WORKIN'
BUT IT'S ENOUGH TO KILL ME WHEN I SEE MY BABY HURTIN'
WANNA GIVE HER THAT DIAMOND, I NEVER GOT TO BUY
4) SHE KEEPS TELLIN' ME THAT EVERYTHING IS GETING BETTER
BUT ONE STEP UP THE RUNG AND SOMEONE KNOCKS ME OFF THE LADDER
'JUST WANNA BREAK EVEN, ONE DAY BEFORE I DIE
Chorus: 2x
