They got me worried. Will I survive? I feel I've got to make more money, or I'll die

That's how it feels, I know it ain't real. Gotta have this, Gotta Have that

Gotta gotta hold of me and you

Time poor. Time poor. Time is money, ain't got none. I'm Poor

Time poor. Time poor. Can't sit down and do nothin', that's for sure

Here in the west we put our kids in care

So we can rush around buyin' things and doin' our hair

Can't sit around, like a lazy old slob. Gotta get the money, Gotta shop around

Gotta getta gotta getta good job

Time poor. Time poor. Time is money, ain't got none. I'm Poor

Time poor. Time poor. Can't sit down and do nothin', that's for sure
