Those big ole dreams
In this little old town
Three kids later
Came crashing on down
With the lot rent due
And the gas bill too
I need a miracle to survive this week
Twenty-two years
On the same old grind
Only four days a week
But it's nine to nine
You gotta do what
You gotta do to get by
And I'd need a miracle to survive this week
Meaning well and such ain't ever the stuff
That makes one dear to us
You know how the road to hell gets paved
And you know how to call my bluff
Call my bluff
I need to take a little time for myself this year
Go fishin', plant a garden, or maybe even brew my own beer
Yeah I need a little bit of time for myself this year
And I need this weekend to take me away from here
Take me away
Lord knows I been
Tryin' real hard
Building my credit
Even got me a car
I don't blow my paycheck
On nights in the bar
But I'll need a miracle to survive this week
Meaning well and such ain't ever the stuff
That makes one dear to us
You know how the road to hell gets paved
And you know how to call my bluff
Call my bluff
