Quick As I Can Make It

With the high price of gasolineI need an ATM machineTo keep the money comingTo keep my motor runningDoes a working man stand a fighting chanceOf even coming close to breaking even at the end of the dayHear what I sayI've been breaking my back for an honest wageBut quick as I can make itSomebody wants to take it awayIf I could win the lotteryBrother I can guaranteeUncle Sam would grab itEven before I had itGet my income and then someLeaving me sitting 'round wondering where the money wentI never even spentMy piece of the pie gets smaller every dayQuick as I can make itSomebody wants to take it away[CHORUS:]I pay a high price for barely getting byI'm on thin ice and trying to let it slideWhen the money's gone they're calling on the phoneI tell 'em I got nothing in the world but hell to payWhat else can I sayEverywhere I turn there's a hand in my faceQuick as I can make itSomebody wants to take it away[CHORUS:]I pay a high price for barely getting byI'm on thin ice trying to let it slideDoes a working man stand a fighting chanceOf even coming close to breaking even at the end of the dayIn the USAI've been breaking my back for an honest wageQuick as I can make itSomebody wants to take it awayI've been breaking my back since the break of dayQuick as I can make itSomebody wants to take it away
