Struggle

I'm down on my luck
Got this monkey on my back
Yeah
My own time, my own dime
Too many problems I can't keep track

Time flies and I die
A little more and more each day
Eyes to the sky and I begin to pray

Why, won't change come my way?
Why, I don't know why
Why, when is today gonna be my day?
Why, tell me why

These cards I've been dealt
They're a dead man's hand
Put the chips in play to win
Let it ride, I'm makin' my stand

Time flies and I die
A little more and more each day
Eyes to the sky and I begin to pray

Why, won't change comе my way?
Why, I don't know why
Why, when is today gonna be my day?
Why, tell mе why

Life and death are in the tongue
Why couldn't I be the one
To say no more?

Why, won't change come my way?
Why, I don't know, I don't know why
Why, when is today gonna be my day?
Why, tell me, tell me, tell me why
