Lari White - Tired lyrics

rate me

(toby keith/chuck cannon)

My name is jesseI was named after my father

Followed in his footstepsdown here to this factory

I ain't complainin'wouldn't waste my breath to bother

This work ain't hardit's only borin' as can be

I married billy johnson back in seventy-seven

I still love him and I guess he loves me too

We go to church on sundays 'cause we want to go to heaven

Me and my familyain't that how you're supposed to do

But I'm tiredlord I'm tired

Life is wearin' me smooth down to the bone

No rest for the wearyya just move on

Tiredlord I'm tired

I've only missed six days in nigh on twenty years o' work

The money went to taxes and these bills I've paid on time

The raise I got two months ago don't meet the cost o' living

Selling my best years for these nickels and these dimes

The smell of billy's coffee rolled me out of bed this morning

I showered and dressed and then I threw some makeup on

I walked in the kitchenhe was starin' out the window

The way he said good morning made me ask is something wrong

He said I'm tiredwoke up tired

And life is wearin' me smooth down to the bone

And there's no rest for the wearyyou just move on

I guess you just keep goin' till your gone

Tired

Oh lordI'm tired

I'm tired

Ohlord I'm tired
