Gary Morris - That's The Way It Is lyrics

When I was a boy and the well ran dry I went to my daddy and I looked him in the eye I said daddy how bout a loan Well, he looked at me I could see it in his face As he reached in his pocket to the money place He said Sonny, I'm down to the bone It takes everything just to get by When you think you got enough The prices just go higher They go on and on Chorus: Well I work real hard but some never will They take my money and they eat their fill It ain't fair son Aww but that's the way it is It ain't fair son but you know That's the way it is Well I swore right then and I swore right there When I grew up I'd have money to spare And then some for nothin' at all Well it was easy to save but hard to do And if it don't get better than 82 I'll be lucky If I make it till fall I gotta sing my boy the same damn song When you think you got enough The prices just go higher They go on an on (Chorus) I gotta sing my boy the same damn song When you think you got enough The prices just go higher They go on an on (Chorus)
