She awoke at six,
Before her husband left for work
Both are 23,
With 5 month old Liza- you see
Soon the "Billman" called
For the rent, the gas, the phone, and all
She owes $890,
But agreed to pay half on Friday
CHORUS
You'll find,
People like them,
Everywhere-
The working poor
But agreed to pay half on Friday
CHORUS
You'll find,
People like them,
Everywhere-
The working poor
You, Me,
No money anymore
Why are we
The working poor
No more
Both dreamed of the day
They knew they couldn't afford
Then the baby came,
Money problems, now they're strugglin'
That's their little boy,
He makes them happy in their new family
CHORUS
You'll find,
People like them,
Everywhere-
The working poor
You, Me,
No money anymore
Why are we,
The working poor
Everything's alright,
John's coming home for a nice quiet night
Billman made their calls,
Tomorrow's another day for sure
CHORUS
