Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Stay Alive lyrics

The sun comes up, the sun goes down But everything stays the same It's the same old movie or the same old song Only the players change It's either 9 to 5 or work all night Everybody's got to pay their dues One half are wrong, one half are right Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose Saying me, oh my, we all got to try to stay alive And we'll get by if we all try to stay alive There's problems here, there's problems there We got confusion everywhere We're all working for a meal or to get a better deal You only want what's fair I'm stuck on stage, you're stuck at home Everybody wants to trade places So I'll be you and you be me Nothing changes except the faces Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive The sun comes up, the sun goes down But everything stays the same It's the same old movie or the same old song Only the players change It's either 9 to 5 or work all night Everybody's got to pay their dues One half are wrong, one half are right Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive We got to stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Me, oh my, we all got to try We got to try to stay alive We got to get by, we all got to try We all got to try, we got to stay alive We got to survive, saying me, oh my We all got to try, to stay, stay alive We all got to try, to get by and stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Stay alive, stay alive, stay alive We got to survive, we all got to try To stay alive, alive, alive, we got to try to survive We all got to try to get by, to get by and get by We got to try and stay alive
