Lyrics

Well, I got me a pretty good job, workin' down at the county Sheriff
But after the bills come out of my account, Lord, I ain't got much left
And it's a funny situation robbin' Peter to pay Paul
Lookin' back now, seems like I ain't got much sense at all
But I don't need that much money
I got everything I need
Just barely gettin' by
And hangin' on by my strings
Well, I ain't got no Ford Bronco, I got no lady to be kissin'
It's hard to think about glass half full when I ain't got a pot to piss in
I finally got my rent paid, a day late and a dollar short
Lord, please don't let my ex-wife take me back to court
Cause I ain't got that much money
I got everything I need
Just barely gettin' by
And hangin' on by my strings
Well, I spent my last overtime check on a dirty pawn shop guitar
And I only know a few of these chords, I pray it takes me far
Yeah, I hope I can make a little more cash with this newfound hobby of mine
I don't need to be a redneck-rich but at least middle class fine
Cause I ain't got that much money
I got everything I need
Just barely gettin' by
And hangin' on by my strings
Well, I ain't got that much money
But I got everything I need
Just barely gettin' by and hangin' on
By these strings
