<b>Life Ain't Fair</b> by <i>Josh Charles</i><br />

By Josh Charles and Milton L. Brown

I was building cars up in Detroit

'Til the imports did us all in

Worked a Gulf of Mexico oil rig

And then got laid off by the wind

Been living life like a gypsy

Willin' to work anywhere

Bad luck stayin' just one step behind

Life ain't fair.

I lost my heart and Rebecca

She wouldn't wait for a vagabond man

She needed more than excuses

It hurts bad, but I understand

My buddies are all in the same fix as me

Not one with two-bits he can spare

And tomorrow is looking as dark as today

Life ain't fair

Life ain't fair, life ain't fair

Preacher said don't give up until you try prayer

I've been prayin', but seems like ain't nobody there

Life ain't fair.

I just heard there's work in Seattle

On an airplane assembly line

It's a low-level job, payin' minimum wage

I'm down to hungry, so that suits me fine

Now, here I am, out on the highway

Cold, with my thumb up in the air

It's a matter of fact unless you're born rich

Life ain't fair.

Life ain't fair, life ain't fair

Preacher said don't give up until you try prayer

I've been prayin', but seems like ain't nobody there

Life Ain't Fair

LIfe Ain't Fair
