From the recording The Crumbs
Lyrics
The Crumbs
When the pills run out
When your back is sore
When you’re trying to keep the wolf from the Goddamn door
When the prayers don’t work
When the help don’t come
When you’re breaking your back all week for the fucking crumbs.
Sometimes it feels like you can’t go on another day. But you dig down deep inside your soul and find a way. You always find a way.
When the week’s half through
And the cash is gone
When you’re up and moving long before the dawn
When your woman cries
And you don’t know what for
But you know deep down she deserves a whole lot more
Chorus
Get sick and tired of being beat down all the time
Sick and tired of heavy hearts and worried minds
Chorus
