Steady Work
Steady Work (I Don’t Have a Job)
By Damian Muller
Chorus
I don’t have a job
I don’t have any money
I can’t buy the things I have to have
I don’t want to borrow
I don’t want to beg
Steady work is still the one thing I don’t have
Verse 1
Well, not too long ago I met me a woman
She became my lover, best friend and wife
Her lovin’ brings me all I’ve ever needed
Except that one thing she can’t bring into my life.
(Chorus)
Verse 2
One Sunday morning, I talked with a preacher
He gave me a Bible, and he told me to pray
Now my poor soul can feel salvation
But I still can’t seem to chase my debts away
(Chorus)
Verse 3
So I went back to school and got an education
and I got my diploma when I passed every class
Now my momma’s prouder, and I know I’m smarter
But that Ph.D. won’t fill my empty glass
Chorus
I don’t have a job
I don’t have any money
I can’t buy the things all my neighbors have
I don’t want to borrow
I don’t want to beg
Steady work is still the one thing I don’t have
Steady work is still the one thing I don’t have.
