Don t take it so personal when they forget about you
Because you re just a drop in the bucket, more meat for the stew
To be chewed up and swallowed and spat back out
Just cause it s cruel, it doesn t mean that it s not true
So take my advice, my friend
Listen to me
Don t work for nothing
No, don t work for free
God s up in heaven, I m not bitter at all
And down on the ground it ain t too far to fall
And don t you worry because time will pass quickly
Yeah, soon you ll be 50 soon you ll be dead
So smoke if you want to and drink up your fill
Your good looks are fading fast, so you, you will
So take my advice, my friend
Listen to me
Don t work for nothing
No, don t work for free
God s up in heaven, I m not bitter at all
And down on the ground it ain t too far to fall
So take my advice, my friend
Listen to me
Don t work for nothing
No, don t work for free
God s up in heaven, I m not bitter at all
And down on the ground it ain t too far to fall
