Make it alright
I took a job in my old hometown to get a leg up,
I’m workin’ overtime cuz the times are tough.
I don’t know anymore how to make that dough,
But I’m trying every day just to make it pay.
Things will start looking up if you hang in long enough,
This is what I have to say, just to make it through my day.
Through my day, through my day, through my day….
*Make it alright, I’ll make it alright.
I’ll make it alright, I’ll make it alright.
I never dreaded coming home until the times got tough,
Now there’s a buzzing in my ear ‘cuz she gives me guff,
“I don’t know you any more, you make my life a bore.
You’re on the job or you roam but you’re never coming home. “
I do every thing I can but I’m feeling stuck,
I tried and I tried but it’s never enough!
Never enough, never enough…

Now I’m starting to feel like giving up.
And she’s acting like I’ve been living it up!
I tell her how I love her so as I’m running through the door,
“You love me, yes, I know, I don’t love you anymore!”
I do everything I can but I’m feeling stuck,
I tried and I tried but it’s never enough.
Never enough, never enough…
