Gotta make money, got kids to feed.
Got rent to make, got shit we need.
Gotta clock in; gotta do what I’m told;
Make money for the boss, turn his lead to gold.
Gotta be a cog in an evil machine.
Ain’t no money nowhere that’s clean.
Gotta sell my soul for a nickel and a dime.
A deal with the devil one day at a time.
The kids get food and a roof overhead–
But they wanted a daddy with a soul instead.
