A Bigger Point Of Pride Lyrics

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride

Grow up, get a job, and cut that hair
Run off, join the army for all they care,
Or bring a blanket; it gets awfully cold
When you can't afford the heat and you're sleepin' alone

Love living life from couch to couch
Thought myself content living hand to mouth
But when everything you own fits in a single bag,
No matter how light the load, it tends to drag

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride

Momma said there'd be days like this
But she's been too late too much this year
(Momma said, Momma said)
Waking up when I was going to sleep before;
Bars are closing, I'm already out the door
No semblance of stability
On old runner's legs in doubt
I still even have the ability
To run this race withoutYou, Me & Everyone We Know - A Bigger Point Of Pride - http://motolyrics.com/you-me-and-everyone-we-know/a-bigger-point-of-pride-lyrics.html
My sacrifice... Recognize...

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride

I make junk mail for The Man
Soon I'll be inking up your hands
While you toss away my work
Machines whir and I make plans
I make junk mail for The Man
I've been inking up your hands
While your sacrifice goes unrecognized...

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride

While the years are still on my side,
My back is strong, my eyes are wide
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride
I want the work I do to be a bigger point of pride
