These Days I Barely Get By Lyrics

I woke up this morning aching with pain

Don't think I can work, but I'll try

The car's in the shop so I thumbed all the way

Oh, these days I barely get by



I walked home from work and it rained all the way

My wife left and didn't say why

She laid all her bills on the desk in the hall

Oh, these days I barely get by



Put my only two dollars on my favorite horse

He lost by a nose and I cried

Oh, my boss says come winter we'll all be laid off

Oh, these days I barely get by



These days I barely get by

I want to give up, lay down and die

Worst of all was when she told me goodbye

Oh, these days I barely get by

Oh, these days, one barely gets by
