I Was Told Lyrics

I Was Told lyrics

I get up in the morning and I work all day
     I come home late at night and
I sleep life away
     There's nothing I can do, it's the way of the
world
     I was told
     I've  spent fourteen years at the job I
got
     I'll spend fourteen more till I've done my lot
     There's
nothing I can do, it's the way of the world
     There's nothing I can do,
it's the way of the world
     I was told and I heard what was said
    
I was told, I listened till I was dead
     I was told... Yeah, I was
told
     I've spent half my life tryin' to make ends meet
     Now I'm
half way there but I think I'm beat
     There's nothing I can do, it's the
way of the world
     I was told
     I look in your eyes and all I see
is hate
     There once was love but now it's too late
     There's
nothing I can do, it's the way of the world
     There's nothing I can do,
it's the way of the world
     I was told and I heard what was said
    
I was told, I listened till I was dead
     I was told... Yeah, I was
told
     Never had it easy, but I never had it this damn hard
