One foot in. They'll fix you. One in nine, tell me, when is this whole wor-rld gonna treat me kind. Can't live on what's given. Mine's got tight. Tell me, when is this whole wor-rld gonna treat me right. The bank has what little I'm able to keep. Sun's getting hotter. I no longer sleep. Well I stare out the window, watch the night creep by. Wonder if. Wonder how. I wonder why. Short dollars I'm spending. My peace of mind, tell me, when is this whole wor-rld gonna treat me kind. Long hours I've given of my whole life. Tell me, when is this whole wor-rld gonna do me right. Up ahead i kno-ow there's a rocky road. No complaint could ease the way it rides. Yet how far we are from where we once stood high. ( Wonder if. Wonder how. I wonder why. ) X 4
