[Verse 1]
I got a job, but it ain't nearly enough
A twenty thousand dollar pickup truck
Belongs to me and the bank and some funny-talkin' man from Iran
I left the service, got a G.I. loan
I got married, bought myself a home
Now I hang around this one-horse town and do the best that I can

[Chorus]
It's gettin' tough
Just my luck
I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough
Gettin' cold
I've been told
Well, nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy

[Verse 2]
Been goin' nowhere down a one-way track
I'd kill to leave it but ain't no turnin' back
Got the wife and the kids and what would everybody say?
My brother's standin' on a welfare line
And any minute now, I might get mine
Meanwhile it's the I.R.S. and the devil to pay

[Chorus]
Oh, gettin' tough
Just my luck
I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough
Gettin' cold
I've been told
Well, nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy
