It’s Just Not Enough

VERSE 1
I’ve been working on the job over twenty-two years
Hustling day and night, drinking cheap ass beer
She treats her friends to lunch, and she plays all day
And when I try to love her she just turns away
CHORUS
Stopped my late night drinking
Hanging out with thugs
Never dated other women
Never did do drugs
Bought her everything she wanted
Even Persian rugs….
And with everything I’m doing
It’s just not enough
Verse 2
Well they laid me off when all the plants closed down
Paying all the bills from a job I found
Well it’s not much money working day to day
And when I try to love her she just turns away
CHORUS
Stopped my late night drinking
Hanging out with thugs
Never dated other women
Never did do drugs
Bought her everything she wanted
Even Persian rugs….
And with everything I’m doing
It’s just not enough
Instrumental
VERSE 3
Well I came home in the middle of the day
The doors fly open, and the plumber runs away
I’m throwing out her clothes, as she’s heading for the door
She took all my money ….… she’s not here no more
Chorus
Going late night drinking
Hanging out with thugs
And I’m dating other women
Still I won’t do drugs
Buying everything I want and
Sold the Persian rugs….
And with everything I’m doing
It’s just not enough
Instrumental Turn
Chorus
I’m going late night drinking
Hanging out with thugs
And I’m dating other women
Still I won’t do drugs
Buying everything I want and
Sold the Persian rugs…
And with everything I’m doing
It’s just not enough
And with everything I’m doing
It’s just not….. enough…
Tag - Spoken
Persian rugs, c’mon man
Hell I got ‘em at WalMart
