Lyrics

19 and I'm livin' out my Mazda from '98
Praying it don't break down, I can't afford to fix the brakes
One hour in between my shifts to make it across town
With my fingers and my toes crossed that my gas tank don't let out
Oh-oh, don't need a fortune
I don't need to be rich to sleep
Well at night
No, wouldn't it be nice
To work to live
'Stead of just survive
Woah, what's a girl do to stay afloat
No, no matter how hard I work
I just keep on being broke
21 workin' 12 hours shifts, Seven days a week
Every dollar straight to rent on a place, I only use to sleep
Feel a cough coming on that I know I can't afford
Too poor to pay outta pocket, too poor to be insured
Oh-oh, don't need a fortune
I dont need to rich to sleep
Well at night
But oh, wouldn't it be nice
To work to live
'Stead of just survive
Woah, what's a girl gotta do to stay afloat
No, no matter how hard I work
I just keep on being broke
Woah, what's a girl gotta do to stay afloat
No, no matter how hard I work
I just keep on being broke
When I get so tired
Think I'm running outta steam
Tell myself at least they say
The best things in life aren't free
Woah, what's a girl gotta do to stay afloat
No, no matter how hard I work
I just keep on being broke
Woah, what's a girl gotta do to stay afloat
No, no matter how hard I work
I just keep on being broke
