Fat cat's just getting fatter
|
Lining their pockets, what does it matter
|
All I want is an honest wage
|
A piece of ground where my kids are safe
|
Eighty bucks to fill my truck
|
Oil man tellin' me times are tough
|
Stickin' it to the middle class
|
well, they can kiss my price of gas
|
It's time to speak my mind
|
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Yeah, and I want it back
|
|
Republican or Democrat
|
Well, I don't give a damn about that
|
I want a chance to do my job
|
Pledge allegiance to my God
|
Talkin' heads tryin' to buy my vote
|
I'm just tryin' to pay my note
|
I'm a husband tryin' to be a father
|
Raise my son and raise my daughter
|
Can you hear me
|
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Yeah, and I want it back
|
|
Well, I'm just standin' on the edge of the brink
|
I will not go quietly, I'll tell you what I think, yeah
|
It's time to speak my peace
|
Squeaky wheel always gets the grease
|
One single voice don't matter
|
But everybody screamin' up the ladder
|
Gonna get the attention of the man on top
|
Make his ladder shake and rock
|
And it might just come tumblin' down
|
Spread all the wealth around
|
That's what I'm talkin' about
|
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Hey yeah, this is my life
|
Yeah, this is my life
|
This is my life
|

This Is My Life
