lyrics
I barely get a chance to eat
Crashing in between the sheets
Lucky if i can get an hour or two to sleep
Every day the same old song
Burn the midnight oil till dawn
Breaking my back for the sake of the company
Working too hard
Working up a sweat
I’ve gotta give my two weeks notice
There’s nothing quite like traveling light
I’m gonna leave it all behind me
I never knew how easy it could be
Taking time or taking off
Talking back and paying the cost
If time is money well I’m just about going broke
Can’t catch a break to save my life
Hardly get to see my wife
Sometimes I feel like I’m married to the clock
Working too hard
Working up a sweat
I’ve gotta give my two weeks notice
There’s nothing quite like traveling light
I’m gonna leave it all behind me
I never knew how easy it could be
Crashing in between the sheets
Lucky if i can get an hour or two to sleep
Every day the same old song
Burn the midnight oil till dawn
Breaking my back for the sake of the company
Working too hard
Working up a sweat
I’ve gotta give my two weeks notice
There’s nothing quite like traveling light
I’m gonna leave it all behind me
I never knew how easy it could be
Taking time or taking off
Talking back and paying the cost
If time is money well I’m just about going broke
Can’t catch a break to save my life
Hardly get to see my wife
Sometimes I feel like I’m married to the clock
Working too hard
Working up a sweat
I’ve gotta give my two weeks notice
There’s nothing quite like traveling light
I’m gonna leave it all behind me
I never knew how easy it could be
