From daybreak til the sun goes down
It's just another day of the blues
Some work nine to five, some work all night
Everybody's gotta pay some kind of dues
Overworked and underpaid
Overworked and underpaid
Every blue collar feels his dollar gettin smaller
It's hard to keep from coming unglued
Sometimes you're wrong, sometimes you're right
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
And there's a price you have to pay
To go on living day to day
No satisfaction guaranteed
Overworked and underpaid
Overworked and underpaid
It's a treadmill existence with no way out
You either hang loose or hang tight
You know that you can shake it, you can always get by
Keep on keepin on til you get it right
