All I Want Is A Life

I just want to get a little more out of my payday

Finally own a car that doesn't break down on the freeway

A little vacation, ain't asking very much

I hate coming home to this old broken down apartment

I wish I had a dime for every hole that's in the carpet

Well, I don't want it all, but I ain't got enough

All I want is a life

To drink from a glass from the well that ain't dry

I'm sick of the crumbs, I want a piece of that pie

All I want is a life

I don't mind the hours and the pain that comes from workin'

But it's enough to kill me when I see my baby hurtin'

Want to give her that diamond, I never got to buy

She keeps tellin' me that everything is getting better

But one step up the wrung and someone knocks me off the ladder

Just want to break even someday before I die

All I want is a life

To drink from a glass from the well that ain't dry

I'm sick of the crumbs, I want a piece of that pie

All I want is a life

Yeah, yeah yeah, oh oh

Oh, all I want is a life

To drink from a glass from the well that ain't dry

Sick of the crumbs, I want a piece of that pie

All I want is a life

All I want is a life

All I want is a life
