"Overtime" lyrics
"Overtime"
Oh-oh I, I ain't got nothing to show
I grind 'til I bleed my bones
'Til the wake of night is closed
I arrive back home with the dawn AM
Give my family their daily bread
And then do it all again
I've been working overtime
Trying to earn me what is mine
'Cause we weren't born to live and die
Working overtime all our lives
On this life's assembly line
I got mountains still to climb
I feel my dreams all coming closer
So until my time here is over
I'm working overtime
My daddy lived for job that he never loved
But child I've been saving up
So I can make this shift for us
Brick by brick, I'm gon' build us a legacy
Something worth more than just money
And we can live our destiny
I've been working overtime
Trying to earn me what is mine
'Cause we weren't born to live and die
Working overtime all our lives
On this life's assembly line
I got mountains still to climb
I feel my dreams all coming closer
So until my time here is over
I'm working overtime
Overtime, I'm working overtime (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Overtime, I'm working overtime (on and on now)
Overtime, I'm working overtime (all my life now)
I've been working overtime
Trying to earn me what is mine
'Cause we weren't born to live and die
Working overtime all our lives
On this life's assembly line
I got mountains still to climb
I feel my dreams all coming closer
So until my time here is over
I'm working overtime

Once they told my fortune wrong
But I still read my horoscope
It helps me cope

So gather all your things

Horse Feathers - "Without Applause" Work was on the way
And I'd rather be no one, work in vain
All the suits are formally
And as for me, I'll soon take that front seat
And time she bears a cross
In an ocean teaming with froth
I'm on...

Every step I take makes a hollow sound
Should I walk away, should I push on through?
What in the world can a good man do?

Henry Jamison - "Fanfare" All the graduates parading
In the afternoon
I shouldn't find that funny
No, but I do
