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 comin` home to this old broken down apartment
I wish I had a dime for every hole that`s in the carpet
I don`t want it all
But I ain`t got enough
All I want is a life
To drink from a glass from a 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`
Wanna give her that diamond I never got to buy
She keeps tellin` me that everything is gettin` better
But one step up the rung and someone knocks me off the ladder
Just wanna break even
Someday before I die
All I want is a life
To drink from a glass from a well that ain`t dry
I`m sick of the crumbs I want a piece of that pie
All I want is a life
All I want is a life
To drink from a glass from a well that ain`t dry
I`m 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
