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?
