You do your time, tow the line Wading through the water heading for the wine Throw your pearls for swine, break your spine You'll never reach a hundred doing 99 You gotta lift your chin to see what comes up ahead Before the casket slams shut and the fat lady's dead
But if I do do all I can Tomorrow comes a chance And if I do do all I don't There's no reason it won’t I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four So hand it over a couple million or more!
Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day Midnight shifter Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day Midnight shifter
Surprise surprise, I got wise When you get up in the morning I just close my eyes No dos or dies are worth the price Cause once you hit the floor they cut you down to size No don't get me wrong we could be one in the same But there's a difference in the way that we're playin' the game Never let no one be no boss over me You work in chain, but my thinking is free
Cause if I do do all I can Tomorrow comes a chance And if I do do all I don't There's no reason it won’t I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four So hand it over a couple million or more!
