Same Old Issues

Intro

(Yeah)

(Same thing everyday, man)

(Aw, man)

Verse 1

Every mornin' when that alarm goes off

I roll outta bed and stretch my back and yawn

Pour a cup of black, grab my keys off the rack

Walk outside and start talkin' to myself like, "Uh-huh"

Verse 2

Sun beats down on this ol' hood

Ain't gonna lie, it don't feel too good

Got a job to do and people to see

But I'll be honest, man, it don't do nothin' for me

Pre-Chorus

'Cause every day I wake up and face the same old issues

Like where I'm gonna eat and whose heart I'm gonna break

And I think I'll get used to it

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Chorus

When the bank calls sayin' the payment's overdue

That my truck broke down, and my ex wants closure too

When this crazy world don't make a lick of sense

And my dog runs away, man, I guess I got it in tense

I don't know how I deal with it

But every day I wake up and face the same old issues

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Verse 3

Every time I get a call from Mom

She's askin' when I'm gonna settle down

And every time I get a call from Dad

He's askin' if I've seen the game this week, "Man, you won't believe what happened"

Verse 4

Every time I see my buddy Jake

Ask me if I think I've had too much to drink

"Nah, buddy, I'm fine," "Yeah, buddy, you're drunk"

"Shut up, buddy, I'll bet you a hundred bucks"

Pre-Chorus

'Cause every day I wake up and face the same old issues

Like who's drivin' home and whose heart I'm gonna break

And I think I'll get used to it

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Chorus

When the bank calls sayin' the payment's overdue

That my truck broke down, and my ex wants closure too

When this crazy world don't make a lick of sense

And my dog runs away, man, I guess I got it in tense

I don't know how I deal with it

But every day I wake up and face the same old issues

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Yeah, I'll get used to

When my back starts hurtin' or I need new shoes

When I gotta work late, man, you know I got the blues

When a girl walks by and she's lookin' fine

I'm thinkin' to myself, "Hey, she could be all mine"

I don't know how I deal with it

But every day I wake up and face the same old issues

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Yeah, I think I'll get used to it

Outro

I'll get used to the traffic

I'll get used to the rain

I'll get used to my girlfriend

Sayin' my name in vain

I'll get used to walkin'

Instead of ridin' the train

Guess I'll get used to the same old issues

Same old issues

Guess I'll get used to the same old issues

(You gotta get used to it)
