Blue Collar

There's a job I've been working
 It pays me just enough to fuck me up
 And bring me down like a house of cards
 Now I'm off, now I'm hurting
 So honey, could you close the blinds, and hold me tight
 And keep me warm 'til the morning comes?
 It pays a few of the bills
 And I take a few of the pills
 And wonder if I'm living
 Or if I'm just alive?
 It pays a few of the bills
 And I take a few of the pulls
 And wonder if I'm living
 Or if I'm just alive?
 'Cause I'm as blue as my collar
 It's who I am, it's where I'm from
 Way down south
 Where the lowest of the lows are damned
 It's a place unforgiving
 A soul-sucking son of a bitch
 And work seems to be all there is
 It pays a few of the bills
 And I take a few of the pills
 And wonder if I'm living
 Or if I'm just alive?
 And wonder if I'm living
 Or if I'm just alive?
 We all wonder if we're living
 Or if we're just alive?
 No wonder if I'm living
 Or if I'm just alive?
