Glen Hansard - Paying My Way Lyrics
Well, you can’t just get what you want
Without a little work a day
And you can’t just stick out your hand,
No, it doesn’t work that way.
I’ll be working all night long
It’s gonna be a long one,
But I’m paying my way
And there’s not much joy in the work
Unless your born to do it, they say.
And we gotta get down in the dirt now
If we wanna see some change.
It's gonna be a long one,
It’s gonna be a long one,
But I’m paying my way
And the heart is sliding backwards
On this long dark night of the soul,
And you're the only thing
That keeps me going on
It's gonna be a long one,
I’ll be working my fingers to the bone
It’s gonna be a long one,
But I’m paying my way
Well, there's not much change in the weather
On this long walk home to you in the rain
And there's not much left in the purse now
By the time the bills are paid
It's gonna be a long one,
I can’t wait for that weekend to roll along
It’s gonna be a long one,
But I’m paying my way
It's gonna be a long one,
I’m gonna take you out dancing all night long
It’s gonna be a long one,
But I’m paying my way
Fair work for fair pay
Yeah, I’m paying my way
