Well I'm pushing on and I'm feeling good
I'm gonna make my point 'til it's understood
'Cause I've been sweating blood but the boss don't care
And I'm walking out of here
I've been pushed around by the men upstairs
With their suits and ties, with their stocks and their shares
Got a wife and kids, but I've got no cash
And I'm walking out of here
They don't even need to say they're sorry
They don't even need to show they care
I ain't gonna be a slave for no one
I ain't gonna work and get nowhere
I've got the right to feel like I've got a voice
I need a chance to speak, need to make a choice
Got a lot to say, but they keep me quiet
And I'm walking out of here
They don't even need to say they're sorry
They don't even need to show they care
I ain't gonna be a slave for no one
I ain't gonna work and get nowhere
Sometimes I feel, feel like a lifetime's past
How long, I ask, how long will this last?
This time
Well I guess it's true what you learn at school
If you oughta win, you gotta break some rules
Now honey, I can sit here and sell my soul
But I'm walking out of here
So if you're satisfied with your lot in life
And if you're truly happy to just survive
Well then, all the best and I wish you luck
But I'm walking out of here
They don't even need to say they're sorry
They don't even need to show they care
I ain't gonna be a slave for no one
I ain't gonna work and get nowhere
