Drive-By Truckers - This f***ing job lyrics

Workin' this job is a kick in the pants Workin' this job is like a knife in the back It ain't gettin' me further than the dump I live in It ain't gettin' me further than the next paycheck Workin' this job is like lightin' two fuses Workin' this job is runnin' out of excuses It's like a dead-end when a road map is useless Until I'm dead and there's nothin' to show for my uses Nobody told me it'd be easy Or for that matter it'd be so hard But it's the livin' and the learnin' It makes the difference, it makes it all worthwhile Makes it all worthwhile Workin' this job, there's nothin' left but to hate it I won't get as far as my daddy made it It ain't gettin' me farther for all my strivin' In the dead-end I live on or the piece of sh** I'm drivin' Nobody told me it'd be easy Or for that matter it'd be so hard But it's the livin' and the learnin' It makes the difference, it makes it all worthwhile Makes it all worthwhile Sometimes I dream that I had aimed my life in different ways But there was nothin' to show me a way to get me outta this place So I just did what my daddy did before me Only to find the only door I found was closed to me Workin' this job, I thought it s**ed when I had it Now it is gone and I'm learnin' what that is I'm tryin' to hang on to the worst of places But a family can't live on these fast food wages Nobody told me it'd be easy Or for that matter it'd be so hard But it's the livin' and the learnin' It makes the difference, it makes it all worthwhile Makes it all worthwhile Workin' this job Workin' this job Workin' this job
