"Make Ends Meet" lyrics

Hush now baby, close your eyes
Mama can't tuck you in tonight
She doesn't ever wanna be away
That's just what it takes to make it through the day

Save those tears, dry your eyes
It's just a one more day in paradise

Tryin' to make ends meet
I'm so tired of being alive and never living
We're born and we're dyin' free
But in between
We're only tryin' to make ends meet

Hush now baby, go to sleep
Daddy's workin' late at the factory
He really wanted to be there for you
But daddy's gotta do what a man's gotta do

Hold those tears, don't you cry
It's just another night in paradise

Tryin' to make ends meet
I'm so tired of being alive and never living
We're born and we're dyin' free
But in between
We're only tryin' to make ends meet

Hold those tears, don't you cry
It's just another night in paradise

Tryin' to make ends meet
I'm so tired of being alive and never living
We're born and we're dyin' free
But in between

We're just tryin' to make ends meet
And I'm so tired of being alive and never living
We're born and we're dyin' free
But in between

Mama can't tuck you in
Daddy's workin' late again
They're just tryin' to make it
Tryin' to make ends meet
