I get up, I get out, I work hard every day
Got my nose to the grind just to get my pay
Work my hands to the bone and get no respect
I know the tax man is waiting at my doorstep
And when the day is done, the only thing I see
My babe is waiting home for me, she knows just what I need
I need sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Money talks and it's just so hard to find
All the people with hands out waiting in line
I got to have some for me, I got to have some for you
I wanted some peace of mind, there's nothing left to do
I need sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
They say the most important things in life are free
But this daily grind is really getting to me
And when the day is done, the only thing I see
My babe is waiting home for me, she knows just what I need
I need sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
I need sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
Sympathy
