I Got It Honest

"I Got It Honest"

It ain't nothin' but a small frame house on an acre lot

It ain't that much diff'rent from any other house on the block

And it may not look like we got all our share of the promise

But at least one thing's for sure, I got it honest

Roll out of the sack every mornin', head on down to the mill

Give 'em all I got for eight, 'cause that's the deal

If you'll check out my paycheck Well, you'll see that there ain't that much on it

But ev'ry single penny I'm paid, I got it honest

I never had to hang my head in shame

For puttin' a price tag on my name
