I wake up 'fore the break of dawn Find my collar put it on A little breakfast and I'm out to start the daily chores
Buck some apples plow the fields As the day goes on emotions start to build But I hold them in, I am strong for them
And I don't complain, I don't complain I keep on workin' just to keep me sane I don't complain, I don't complain I hold my head up to pushin' through the pain
I work in silence every day Sometimes it hurts so bad I fear what I might say So I keep my answers simple (Eeyup)
Others see me for my strength But they don't see the empty heart about to break And I won't let them see behind this mask I wear
'Cause I don't complain, I don't complain I keep on workin' just to keep me sane I don't complain, I don't complain I hold my head up to pushin' through the pain
You'll never see me crying Never see me fall And you think that I am smiling I have fooled you all!
Oh I don't complain, I don't complain I keep on workin' just to keep me sane I don't complain, I don't complain I hold my head up to pushin' through the pain
I wake up 'fore the break of dawn Find my collar put it on A little breakfast and I'm out to start the daily chores
