Joel Mckay - Living to Survive Lyrics

Jacks a labourer
He works from nine to five
Then he has to travel
Another hours time
And were all just try'na get by
Were living to survive
Jacks partner Karen
We all think shes great
She gotta get up early
Then she stays up late
Shes gotta run the children
Another day at school
No time to get her hair done
So much she has to do
And were all just try'na get by
We're running out of time
Were living to survive
Karens mother mary
Thirty seven years shes worked
Behind the local counter
Got everybody served.l
And shes good to Karen
She always does her bit
Picking up the groceries
And helping with the kids
And were all just try'na get by
We're running out of time
And we all need to provide
Were living to survive
And were all just try'na get by
We're running out of time
And we all need to provide
Were living to survive
