He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
Came to a new land
Didn't know a soul
His wife's a couple months pregnant
No one to help at all
Working day and night shift
Working two jobs in total
Trying to keep their heads up
Treading unknown waters
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
Came for a better life
But now they're stuck at the bottom
Though you'll never hear him complain or grumble
Lack of money, living day to day is a struggle
But he's got hungry mouths to feed
So he fights the uphill battle
This land won't accept them as their own
But the other place ain't home no more
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders
