Just Trying to Get By Lyrics

I spent all day working my way down the unemployment page

I don't ask what I'll be doing

I just ask how much it pays

Cause I ain't got nothing to lose

I ain't got no one to blame

I've been a lost cause for my whole life

And there ain't nothing changed

I'm just trying to get by

I just need a little help sometimes

I'm just trying to get by

Get by

Looking for something

In this world that lasts

But my present and future

They still look my past

This is not what I expected my life would look like now

Cause I'm just another number

I'm just another noun

I'm my age, occupation and sex

Past employment, current address

What I think the future holds next

And why i'm qualified to clean up your mess

Excuse me son but there ain't much for me out there

It's hard to know where you're going

When you don't come from no where

I'm just trying to get by

I just need a little help sometimes

I'm just trying to get by

Get by

Isn't that what we all do

Find something to hold on to

And try

Isn't that what we all do

Find something to hold on to

And try

I'm just trying to get by

I just need a little help sometimes

I'm just trying to get by

Get by

I'm just trying to get by
