Yeah yeah oh
She works all day on her pension
Nine to five just way too long
Moving in the right direction
But she always seem so far
She thought by now she'd be fancy
Double CCs on her waist
But the promises were empty
And the compliments feel fake
Yeah
Oh it's hard to get enough
But she tries he tries we try to get by get by get by
Oh yeah
He's so tired from the night shift
But he needs the overtime
Eyes are closed cooking breakfast
Right back out the door in five
He thought by now he'd be racked up
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
Louis V and greener pastures
Doesn't even really matter
'Cause it's hard to get enough
But she tries he tries we try to get by get by get by
I know it's hard to get enough
But she tries he tries we try to get by baby get by baby get by
Yeah ooh
Golden and shiny things don't make a brighter day
Onto a higher place
I know we'll find a way
Oceans and tidal waves
Hoping the tides will change
Onto a higher place
I know we'll find a way
I know open road could seem so cold
Zero degrees at most
You can get warm for free I know
Baby I know
I know it'll get hard to breathe
I know money ain't worth the trees
I know
I know
I know I know
Uh
I know it's hard to get enough
But she tries he tries and we try to get by baby get by baby get by
Oh I know it's hard to get enough
But she tries he tries we try to get by baby get by baby get by
Yeah
