Workin' for a Livin' Lyrics

2024 Broadway
The Heart of Rock and Roll the Musical - Workin' for a Livin' Lyrics


The song is written by Huey Lewis and others.

Somedays won't end ever
And somedays pass on be
I'll be working here forever,
At least until I die,
Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't
I'm supposed to get a raise week,
You know damn well I won't.

Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving
'Cause I'm working for a livin'.

Hey I'm not complaining
'Cause I really need the work
Hitting up my buddy's got me feeling like a jerk
Hundred dollar car note,
Two hundred rent.
I get a check on Friday,
But it's all ready spent.

Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving
'Cause I'm working for a livin'.

Whoa, Workin' for a livin' whoa,
Taking what they giving
Whoa, Workin' for a livin' whoa, ooh

Bus boy, bartender, ladies of the night
Grease monkey, ex-junky, winner of the fight
Walking on the streets it's really all the same
Selling souls, rock n' roll, any other day

Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin' (workin')
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving
'Cause I'm working for a livin'.
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'
I'm taking what they giving
'Cause I'm working for a livin'.
Workin' for a livin', livin' and workin'


Review: The Heart of Rock and Roll the Musical Lyrics


The Heart of Rock and Roll the Musical Lyrics

Hip to Be Square
Don't Make Me Do It
Do You Believe in Love?
Workin' for a Livin'
I Know What I Like
It's All Right
That's Not Me
Give Me The Keys (And I'll Drive You Crazy)
The Heart of Rock & Roll
You Crack Me Up
I Want a New Drug
Doing It All for My Baby
Stuck with You
The Power of Love
It Hit Me Like a Hammer
Back In Time
Jacob's Ladder
The Only One
Perfect World
If This Is It
Tattoo (Giving It All Up for Love)
