Nine To Nine Blues

Yeah I worked nine to nine 
But they gave me overtime  
They said you gotta work harder  
Or you'll never get out of the slime 
It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
You never win you only lose 
It was the nine to nine blues 

Yeah I worked for three years 
Or was it twenty four? 
It was blood sweat and tears 
All my hopes were crushed on the floor  
It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
You never win you only lose 
It was the nine to nine blues 

Then one day God spoke to me 
loud and clear 
He said dust down your guitar 
And get the hell out of here 
It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
You never win you only lose 
It was the nine to nine blues 

It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
It was the nine to nine blues 
You never win you only lose 
It was the nine to nine blues (repeat)
