I scratch a living, it ain't easy you know it's a drag
I'm always paying never making, but you can't look back
I wonder if i'll ever get to where i want to be
Better believe it, i'm working from a cash machine
Go to a cash machine, to get a ticket home
A message on the screen says don't make plans you're broke
No no this can't be right, i know that times is tight
I've only just been paid 3 weeks 5 days till i'm seen right
I scratch a living, it ain't easy you know it's a drag
I'm always paying never making, but you can't look back
I wonder if i'll ever get to where i want to be
Better believe it, i'm working from a cash machine
I try to phone a friend, my credit's in the red
I try to skip the fair, ticket inspectors there
No no this can't be right, i live an honest life
It seems like sometimes you don't cross the line and you don't get by
I scratch a living, it ain't easy you know it's a drag
I'm always paying never making, but you can't look back
I wonder if i'll ever get to where i want to be
Better believe it, i'm working from a cash machine
