Working For Nothing

Verse 1

Paycheck comes and paycheck goes

Boss man hollers where the money went

Boots got holes and the truck won't start

Still I'm grinning like a lucky man

Pre-Chorus

Sheriff knows my name

Knows I ain't been around

Been keeping my nose clean

Just bouncing through this town

Chorus

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

But I ain't in a cell tonight

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

And somehow that's alright

Got my dog got my kin

Got a cold one and a grin

Working for nothing getting nowhere

Nowhere's where I shine

Post-Chorus

Hey hey nowhere's fine

Hey hey nowhere's fine

Verse 2

Borrowed boots and a borrowed dime

Mama said boy you're doing fine

Ain't got a plan ain't got a scheme

Just a beat-up truck and a dream

Pre-Chorus

Preacher says I'm bound for trouble

Says I'm heading down

But I'm standing in the sunshine

Kicking up this ground

Chorus

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

But I ain't in a cell tonight

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

And somehow that's alright

Got my dog got my kin

Got a cold one and a grin

Working for nothing getting nowhere

Nowhere's where I shine

Post-Chorus

Hey hey nowhere's fine

Hey hey nowhere's fine

Bridge

Maybe I'm a fool for grinning

Maybe I'm a fool for staying

But the creek still runs and the sun still burns

And I ain't done complaining

Chorus

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

But I ain't in a cell tonight

Working for nothing getting nowhere fast

And somehow that's alright

Got my dog got my kin

Got a cold one and a grin

Working for nothing getting nowhere

Nowhere's where I shine

Post-Chorus

Hey hey nowhere's fine

Hey hey nowhere's fine
