Well I'm just standin' on the edge of the brink
Hey yea, this is my life
Spread all that wealth around
It's time to speak my peace
All I want is an honest wage
Hey yea, this is my life
Eighty bucks to fill my truck
Pledge allegiance to my God
Hey yea, this is my life
Talking heads tryin' to buy my vote
Stickin' it to the middle class
Well, I don't give a damn about that
Old man telling me times are tough
Hey yea, this is my life
That's what I'm talking about
Can you hear me?
Gonna get the attention of the man on top
Whoa whoa, yea, and I want it back
I'll tell you want I think, yea
The squeaky wheel always gets the grease
I want a chance to do my job
It's time to speak my mind
I'm just tryin’ to pay my note
Whoa whoa, this is my life
And it might just come a tumblin' down
Republican or Democrat
A piece of ground where my kids are safe
I'm a husband tryin' to be a father
One single voice don't matter
Whoa whoa, yea, and I want it back
Raise my son, and raise my daughter
Well, they can kiss my price of gas
Hey yea, this is my life
Whoa whoa, yea, this is my life
I will not go quietly
Hey yea, this is my life
Whoa whoa, this is my life
But everybody screaming up the ladder
Whoa whoa, this is my life
Make it light or shake and rock
