Jobs
Today the economy is so bad it's hard
It's like taking a new card
You wonder where the money will come from
You thought you were planted and all done
Now you must start all over at an old age
It's hard when you can't turn the new page
You have a family to support with no wage
It's like you are tied up in a cage
So I hope jobs come back the way they were
So the paycheck is there for sure
Someone has to do something right
Cause everyones pocket is so tight
You have to tell your kids no
When they are use to getting everything so
Well jobs are hard now and people are afraid
It's like our world has been decayed
I will close with I'm looking again to work
Hope the economy quits being a jerk
