Lyrics

One for the money, two for the show, three steps back and around we go. Trade in my blood, sweat and tears, just watchin time disappear.

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame, a shame shame shame, to live this way?

You break your back, to get ahead, and now they work out you until you’re dead. Handful of change/cash and a case of beer, but you’ll never get back those years.

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame, shame, shame, to live this way?

And when you’re empty, you fill your cup, with shiny things that don’t mean much. You’re tryin to find a place to fall. But you don’t have a friend to call.

Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame, shame, shame, to live this way?
