you just cant get ahead?
Trying hard just to get through,
But falling on your face instead,
Well this is how I feel,
My husband & I,
this is all to real,
its tough to get by,
You work for money,but little pay,
but where does it all go,
for bills that were due like yesterday,
this is life as we all know,
It never seems we get ahead,
trying more each day,
We should have just stayed in bed,
instead of working all day!
