[verse 1]
carhart jacket on 5:30 am
feelin’ like the ace of spades
15 years old, work till the sun comes
then i’m off to school again
workin’ my back as a young man
taught me i’d rather work my mind
so we’d cop a little smoke
and crack a couple jokes
just tryin’ to learn to survive

[chorus]
i wanted to work to live
no not just live to work
i had a pain deep in my bones beneath my t-shirt
was a young man singin’ an old man’s song
payin’ with my last dimes
but workin’ to live beats livin’ to work
anytime

[verse 2]
i had a teacher
she told my mother she better find me a trade
because boys like me well we all grow up
to be long term guests of the state
now i worked hard because i had to
i never found much luck
till’ i built my world
round’ a georgia girl
who told me that i was enough

[chorus]
i wanted to work to live
no not just live to work
i had a pain deep in my bones beneath my t-shirt
was a young man singin’ an old man’s song
payin’ with my last dimes
but workin’ to live beats livin’ to work
anytime

[verse 3]
sometimes at night i wake with a shiver
sweat soakin’ clean through my sheets
then i remember i am who i am
not who they said i would be
i wasn’t born with nothin’
cept’ a voice and common sense
maybe that why i took off runnin’
first chance that i had

[chorus]
i wanted to work to live
no not just live to work
i had a pain deep in my bones beneath my t-shirt
was a young man singin’ an old man’s song
payin’ with my last dimes
but workin’ to live beats livin’ to work
anytime
oh workin’ to live beats livin’ to work
anytime
