Intro

[Verse A]
C
I roll out every mornin' I drink my coffee on the run
F
Workin' for the man just the way my daddy done
C
Well the money I'm makin' ain't buyin' much bacon
G7
but when payday comes along
F7 G7 C C7 C C7
Sometimes I gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
[Verse B]
C
The telephone keeps ringin' and it gets under my skin
F
They all call to ask me when I'll send the money in
C G7
But AT&T does a favor for me and takes a message at the tone
F7 G7 C Cm C Cm
Sometimes I gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
[Chorus]
F A#7 F A#7
Seems the road is gettin' rougher as I roll on up the hill
F A#7 F A#7
High times passin' by me just like I was standin' still
F A#7 F A#7
But I'm almost to the top and I'll go until I drop
F A# G7 C
Some fall by the wayside but I've gone to far to stop
[Verse A]
C
The woman of my dreams she was like a livin' doll
F
I sent her far away when she set me for a fall
C
She was a digger and the bills got bigger and I was up against the
G7
wall

Now I hear those wolves a howlin' I can't get no sleep at all
F A#7 F A#7
The Good Lord knows I'm tired of robbin' Peter to pay Paul
F A#7 F A#7
From the grind stone to the gravestone is it really worth it all
