Already Spent

(Jeff Bates/Terry Clayton)
Im workin 40 hours
And mroe if
I can get it
Still need an extra job
So I can get more credit
Well, I work hard because we charged
Tomorrow yesterday
Im in debt over my head
The American way
Its already spent
Every dime
Ill ever make
From the high cost of living
And what the government takes
I dont have to worry
Or wonder where it went
I sleep like a baby
Cause its already spent
I hear em talkin on
TV Bout where we should invest
Stocks and bonds, mutual funds 401s and the rest
Well my retirement plans a coffee can
And its full of
IOUs My money goes to those
I owe And
I bet you yours does too
Its already spent
Every dime
Ill ever make
From the high cost of living
And what the government takes
I dont have to worry
Or wonder where it went
I sleep like a baby
Cause its already spent
Yeah, its already spent
Every dime well ever make
From the high cost of living
And what the government takes
We dont have to worry
Or wonder where it went
We sleep like babies
Cause its already spent
Well sleep just like babies
Cause its already spent
Every last dime
