life keeps bringing me down
whenever i try living above my means
life keeps bringing me down yeah
life keeps bringing me down
blues keep coming around
hard living's gonna be the death of me
life keeps bringing me down
when the clouds roll in and the sun won't shine
life keeps bringin' me down
my dollar bill ain't worth a dime
life keeps bringin' me down yeah

big teardrops hittin' the ground
well it won't stop raining on this heart of mine
life keeps bringing me down
yeah i hate to wake up when the morning comes
life keeps bringin' me down
but i drank a pot of coffee and i'm on the run
life keeps bringin' me down yeah
life keeps bringing me down
the world keeps spinning around
yeah the old rat race it ain't no fun
life keeps bringing me down
i've got a mountain of debt to crawl out from under
life keeps bringing me down
but one of these days i'm gonna hit the numbers
life keeps bringing me down yeah
life keeps bringing me down
i broke right down to the ground
man it's been a bummer the whole damn summer
life keeps bringing me down yeah
life keeps bringing me down ho
