Down and Out by Girard
Down and Out
(Verse 1)
Woke up this morning, sky was gray and low,
Bills piled up high, ain’t no place to go,
Got a hole in my pocket and a tear in my soul,
Every day’s a struggle just to stay in control.
(Chorus)
Down and out, can’t catch a break,
Workin’ my fingers to the bone for a little stake,
Fighting every day, just to make it through,
I’m down and out, but I’ll be coming for you.
(Verse 2)
The rent’s overdue, and my wallet’s bare,
No matter where I turn, there’s trouble everywhere,
Got a broken-down car, and my shoes are worn,
But I’m digging deep inside, ’cause I’m not forlorn.
(Chorus)
Down and out, can’t catch a break,
Workin’ my fingers to the bone for a little stake,
Fighting every day, just to make it through,
I’m down and out, but I’ll be coming for you.
(Bridge)
In the dead of the night, when the world’s asleep,
I find my strength in the dreams I keep,
Through the dark and the cold, I’ll rise above,
With a heart full of fire and a will of love.
(Chorus)
Down and out, can’t catch a break,
Workin’ my fingers to the bone for a little stake,
Fighting every day, just to make it through,
I’m down and out, but I’ll be coming for you.
(Outro)
Yeah, I’m down and out, but I ain’t done,
Gonna keep on fighting ’til I see the sun,
Every hardship faced, only makes me strong,
I’m down and out, but I’ll keep pushing on.
