| "It Ain't Fair 45 RPM" | |
| You pay me a nickel when I'm worth more than a dime Why you keeping me down all the time I sweat and I slave to give you what I got And you slap me down, leaving me to rot It ain't fair. Life ain't fair. But what am I gonna do? Heavy burdens on my shoulders Get these weights right offa me Dangerous fire around me smolders It ain't the way the world oughta be But it is. It just is. It always is. You drag my name through the muck and the mire Why are you hating? Why do you never tire? I never did you a single wrong And you slap me down and silence my song. It ain't fair. Life ain't fair. But what am I gonna do? ::bridge:: Heavy burdens on my shoulders Get these weights right offa me Dangerous fire around me smolders It ain't the way the world oughta be But it is. It just is. It always is. You make me promises and feed me big dreams But nothing you say is ever what it seems I fly on a thought, heaven bound And you slap me down, leave me on the ground It ain't fair. Life ain't fair. But what am I gonna do? Heavy burdens on my shoulders Get these weights right offa me Dangerous fire around me smolders It ain't the way the world oughta be But it is. It just is. It always is. | |
